The magnificent stone pillars of Seokjojeon that you can feel in Korea National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art🇰🇷

#JanuaryTravelSupportEvent #koreatrip #FebruaryTravelSupportEvent Winter sunset at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Deoksugung Palace alone Yesterday (February 18th) at 4:30 PM, I visited the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Deoksugung Palace alone. The winter sunlight shining on the glass windows at the entrance of the modern museum next to Seokjojeon was dazzling! At around 4:50 PM, I was captivated by the charm of the coexistence of old paintings and modern art in front of the replica of ‘Inwangjesaekdo’ that I found in the exhibition room on the 2nd floor. The guide told me, “If you’re alone, the outdoor sculpture exhibition is good around 5:30 PM,” so I hurried over there. 📌 Essential information for solo travelers Night opening: Wednesdays and Saturdays, 6 PM - 9 PM (free admission) Hidden point: Enjoy the sparkling projection mapping from the hidden seats in the 1st floor media art room Discount information: 50% off admission fee when submitting a college student ID (2,000 won → 1,000 won) Photo zone: Iron chair in front of Nam June Paik's work in the outdoor garden → Stone Hall in the background At around 5 o'clock, I took a picture of the sunset reflecting on the museum hallway through the glass window with my phone camera. Despite the cold weather, I came out after seeing the exhibition until 5:20, and the security guard smiled and said, "Come back next Wednesday night!" 🚨 Notes Slippery stone steps in the outdoor exhibition hall (snow boots required) 1st floor cafe orders close at 5:50 PM No large bags allowed (free lockers available) 1 hour and 20 minutes to truly feel the "harmony of history and modernity"! I plan to visit again in the spring when Deoksugung Palace cherry blossoms and the museum opens at night. 🌸 #korea #2024wishevent
