October 14, 2024 Annual Meeting
As a living vestige of Korea's history and culture, The National Museum of Korea is home to today's best collection of history and culture deeply rooted within the Korean people. Regular exhibitions and education programming speak of the numerous anecdotes of the nearly 420,000 collected historical artifacts with thousands of years of history, while also offering realistic digital animations and VR technology to provide a more impactful experience. The museum includes everything from a simple hand axe of the Paleolithic Period and a magnificient golden crown of the Three Kingdoms Period to Goryeo Period celadons, or pottery, and paintings dating back to the Joseon Period, as well as pictures of modern-era Korea and a variety of other zones dedicated to different cultures throughout the globe. Bring your family, friends, or even that special someone over to the museum for a day of fascination amid a compilation of detailed and colorful history.

“You can either take the subway (a transfer required) or a cab to get to the museum from your hotel. Subway is safe and easy to use, and taxis are cheap, though traffic can sometimes be really bad. Looking forward to welcoming you in Seoul! Best regards, You-Me”
