'Walking Landscape' features works that depict the beauty and vitality found in small forms of life, such as roadside grass and flowers. According to the hospital, the exhibition was designed to offer patients and caregivers a moment of rest and comfort through the artwork.

Launched in 2023, SMC Care Gallery is an in-hospital arts and culture program now in its fourth year. For this 4th round, 394 teams applied, and six emerging artists were selected through a screening process.

The artworks of the selected artists will be exhibited every two months through July 2027. Following Yoon Kyung Kim, artists Yeonjae Choi, Kyunga Cho, Miseong Lim, Jooyong Roh, and Yunhee Kim are scheduled to participate in the exhibitions.
