Reflecting on characters and writings, and what they mean to you
A museum that expands your understanding of Hangeul (Korean alphabets). It consists of a 'permanent exhibition hall' that introduces the history of King Sejong and Hunminjeongeum, and a 'special exhibition hall' that presents Hangeul in a different way. The mysterious media art, videos, and audio make it easy to see the collections come alive, and the Hangeul Playground, which is filled with Hangeul-themed toys and play equipment, is particularly popular among families.
