The "Somewhat Strange Job Experience" series produced by Yugure Inc. was born from the "Toranomon Hills Cleaner" event held in October 2025 across the Toranomon Hills Station Tower. The series has mobilized over 8,000 people, including the "Nezu House Cleaning" held at an undisclosed private house in Nezu. The highly immersive emotional design has received great acclaim. This time, it is a highly realistic immersive experience linked to the contemporary art exhibition being held at TOKYO NODE GALLERY. What is the "Somewhat Strange Job Experience"? There are many professions in the world, but you only have one body. Even if you want to experience various jobs, it's difficult. The "Somewhat Strange Job Experience" is an event where adults can "experience" such "jobs." As the name suggests, it's not a normal job experience. Enjoy a "somewhat strange" job wrapped in excitement. The Story of the Event The following request arrived from "Toranomon Hills." "Actually, unexplained 'strange events' have been happening continuously after closing hours at the contemporary art exhibition currently being held at TOKYO NODE GALLERY, and we would like your help." Accepting the request, you infiltrate the closed art museum as a job experience as a "Twilight Museum Curator." While patrolling the facility, determine what is fiction and what is reality through actions unique to after-hours. Job Experience as a "Twilight Museum" Curator! The curators belonging to the Twilight Museum are somewhat strange curators who are active only at midnight. In addition to normal artwork inspections, we also handle the inspection of strange artworks such as "exhibits that start moving" and "portraits that blink." Highlights of the Event - A midnight "curator experience" set in an actual art exhibition You will experience a job as a special curator in an art museum after closing, outside normal viewing hours. The stage is the 45th floor TOKYO NODE GALLERY, which offers a panoramic view of Tokyo's nightscape. Enjoy the overwhelming sense of the extraordinary and tension that cannot be experienced during daytime viewing. - The mysterious world of Tony Oursler's works is the stage! The stage for the experience is the large-scale solo exhibition venue of Tony Oursler, a leading American multimedia art master, after closing. This event is a meta-art experience where you can physically experience the theme of Oursler's works, which questions the fragility of human perception, amidst a mysterious contemporary art exhibition. - "What is fiction, and what is reality?" As a special curator job experience, participants will put on white gloves (*1) and patrol the artworks that move at midnight. Through actions unique to after-hours and places you usually cannot enter, determine what is fiction and what is reality. The morning after finishing this experience, your view of the world will surely have changed a little. All participants will receive a limited edition "Somewhat Strange Job Experience: Midnight Curator" white glove All participants will receive a "white glove (*1)" printed with the logo of this event. You can enjoy this event wearing the white glove, an essential item for curators. *1 Distributed for one hand only. Even with the white glove on, you cannot actually touch the artworks.

When Toranomon Hills consulted us, my imagination immediately ran wild. A story that can only be experienced in a midnight museum surrounded by the nightscape of Toranomon. And it will be held after the closing of the real Tony Oursler exhibition. How interesting. Immediately, the idea for the "Somewhat Strange Job Experience: Midnight Curator," an experience of being a Twilight Museum curator active only at midnight, was born. I think it will be a premium experience available only during this period. Please don't miss it. Saori Kida (Representative Director, Yugure Inc.) Established SCR Inc. in 2011
