After eight years, the large yellow duck on display around the world traveled to Seoul, the capital of South Korea, and attracted more than 5 million visitors in less than a month.

In addition to driving the business of local businesses, the organizers also expressed the hope that the arrival of the big yellow duck will bring warmth to the people who are tired of fighting the epidemic.

An 18-meter-tall giant yellow duck appeared at Seokchon Lake in Seoul. The chubby figure, round black eyes, and cute appearance attract a large number of visitors to come to see its style.

Seoul citizens said that the weather is good, and it is a very good choice to watch the big yellow duck by the lake and enjoy the date time. The Big Yellow Duck, designed by Dutch artist Hoffmann, has visited many countries and regions since traveling in 2007.

Duck's return to South Korea at the end of last month has attracted a large number of visitors and boosted business in the nearby business district.

A coffee shop owner said that the recent business volume has increased by 10%. Many industry players also saw business opportunities and used such external effects to attract visitors back and promote the recovery of the industry.

Big Yellow Duck traveled around the world and visited 13 countries successively, which has become the focus of global attention. Holland's Florentine Hoffmann created its cute big yellow duck shape, which is deeply loved by people. Back in 2007, the giant floating sculpture of a yellow rubber duck, 26 meters high, first appeared in the port of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, causing a new wave.

As a large-scale public art project, the Yellow Duck has also brought commercial effects to local tourism and surrounding consumer markets.

This is a big yellow duck that brings back childhood memories. Florentine Hoffman started to conceive the idea of "Big Yellow Duck" as early as 2001. After 5 years of experimentation, creation, production, and proofing, "Big Yellow Duck" was finally born in 2006.

In 2007, the 26-meter-high "Big Yellow Duck" was officially launched, and then began a long exhibition tour, which successively visited 14 cities in 11 countries, including Nuremberg in Germany, Sao Paulo in Brazil, Osaka in Japan, London in the United Kingdom, and Sydney in Australia.

Follow-up caused a sensation in Hong Kong and brought great commercial value. Its copycat version of "Big Yellow Duck" once caught Florentine Hoffman into a vortex of copyright disputes.

Florentine Hoffmann, born in the Netherlands in 1977, is a conceptual artist. It is world-famous for its large-scale public art piece, the Big Yellow Duck. He studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Kampen, the Netherlands, and graduated in 2000.

He then obtained a master's degree at the Berlin-Weissensee Academy of Arts in Berlin, Germany.

Since then, based in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, he has been engaged in artistic projects creating giant figures in public spaces. Hoffman's works are numerous, the main works are "Three Grand Pianos" (2006 on the island of Schimonek, West Frisian Islands, Netherlands), "Big Yellow Rabbit" (2011 in Orebro, Sweden) )and many more. His work Rubber Duck has been exhibited around the world since 2007.
