A giant wave has appeared on the LED façade of South Korea's biggest digital billboard, located in Seoul's Gangnam District

Appearing for exactly one minute every hour, the simulation is so realistic it looks as if water is about to pour over the heads of people who pass through the busy commercial square.

Titled"WAVE," the project was designed by d'strict -- a firm that specializes in using immersive technology to create public art. The project took four months to execute from start to finish, including three months of digital design work to make sure it achieved the desired effect. "We want to create overwhelming experiences," said Jun Lee, Business Development Director at d'strict."Waves are beautiful and dynamic in themselves but we chose them as our subject because they evoke feelings of comfort -- which is much needed now."

'Biden's support dwindles with latest racist remarks'

Beautiful installation

Tsunami.

They could show some sea life underwater instead. Would definitely not be stressful. The waves look like they could be breaking the glass, creating tension.

This is a whole different level! Wow

It's awesome!😲

Oh, so they don't miss or long for the ocean and all the happy little worker drones stay inside the city limits! Of course.

It reminds me of sharks. If you want to relaxing, you must desingned beach 👍

That's nothing, wait until you see how many people can be crammed together.

It took CNN 12 HOURS to mention Joe Biden’s bigoted remark on air. We all know that if a Republican made a similar comment, CNN would have reworked their entire day of programming to feature 9-person panels condemning it.

As the countries around the world continue to improve their cities and build new attractions, the billionaires in this country continue to milk the United States dry.

Wow! Are they supporting the USAs BlueWave2020 too?

Hi. I see you wrote 'South Korea' but did you know that Koreans don't really like it when you specify 'South' when it's not totally necessary to what you're saying? It's a painful and unwelcome reminder of our divided country. Please consider this in the future. 감사합니다!

So fascinating, but at the same time I'm holding my breath when I look at it.

Most people like the sound of waves but if your neighbour is testing weapons of mass destruction this might not be so pleasant for you worrying what’s coming over their fence?
