🤍Address: 99 Sejong-daero, Jung-gu, Seoul 🤍Operating hours: 10:00-18:00 every day (Closed every Monday) 🤍Review: Introducing the ‘National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Deoksugung’ located in the heart of Seoul. Deoksugung Museum of Art is an art museum that systematizes the formation and development of modern art in Korea, establishes aesthetic consciousness and a view of history, and establishes the cultural identity of our people. There are various art exhibits, so there were many things to see. I recommend it :) #Exhibition #National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art #Deoksugung #DeoksugungExhibition

🔸Deoksugung Stone Hall This is the art museum building and the Daehan Empire History Museum building located in Deoksugung Palace. It is a modern yet exotic building reminiscent of the buildings of Athens, Greece, and the night view is especially beautiful~ I recommend visiting in the afternoon to see the interior and the night view before leaving^^ You can feel the exotic sensibility of being overseas, and it is a photo zone paradise where you can take many great pictures! #Seoul travel #Exotic #Hot place #Seoul hot place #Good place to take pictures #Good atmosphere #Date course #Life shot spot

#Exhibition I visited the exhibition of Park Soo-geun, a croquis artist who always appears in art textbooks, held at Deoksugung Palace. As one of the masters representing our country, it was exciting just to be able to see his world of works. Looking at his works from his childhood, I could see that he has done many different things and that he has also done many illustrations. It is being exhibited at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Deoksugung Palace and is so popular that advance reservations are essential. The theme is 'Nam-dong waiting for spring' and it was a perfect theme for the current season. It was an exhibition that highlighted Park Soo-geun's signature low-saturation sense. I hope you experience it at least once. #Deoksugung Palace #Park Soo-geun Exhibition #Hot Place

One of the reasons foreigners love Seoul is It's called a palace in the city center! It's so beautifully preserved It seems to make Seoul shine even more. I'll show you a picture of Deoksugung Palace, which is surrounded by pine trees and is great for a walk in the summer:) #SummerCapture#SafeTravel

Last day of 2 nights and 3 days in Seoul I don't have much time, but I want to see the cherry blossoms near the hotel and feel Seoul!

#koreatrip Visiting the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA) in Seoul was an amazing experience. It’s a great place to spend time and explore Korea’s rich artistic heritage. The museum showcases a diverse collection of contemporary and modern artworks, offering insight into Korea’s evolving art scene. From paintings and sculptures to multimedia installations, every exhibit tells a unique story. The museum’s layout is spacious and well-organized, making it easy to appreciate each piece. The blend of traditional influences with modern creativity was truly inspiring. It’s a must-visit for art lovers and anyone interested in discovering Korea’s history through its artistic expressions. The visit was both educational and enjoyable.

#CanadaFlightEvent #Seoul #ArtMuseum In addition to the Seoul branch of the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, there is an art museum in Deoksugung Palace. You have to pay an entrance fee to Deoksugung Palace, but it is not a burden at 1,000 won. It is definitely worth it. After enjoying Deoksugung Palace to the fullest, If you go to the place where the Seokjojeon is, you will see the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. It is smaller than the Seoul branch, but the exhibitions are well organized, so you can go there after work without feeling burdened. If you are going after work, I recommend going on a day when it is open at night. I recommend enjoying the beautiful building and exhibitions.

#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"!

#IndoorDate #SeoulExhibition #PlacesToVisitInSeoul 🔖National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Deoksugung 📍99 Sejong-daero, Jung-gu, Seoul I went to see the Subyeolmi, Korean-Chinese Modern and Contemporary Painting Exhibition held at the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Deoksugung. It was originally scheduled to be held in 2022 to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Korea-China diplomatic relations, but it was postponed due to COVID-19 and will be held in Deoksugung and Beijing this year. A total of 148 works, 74 each from each country, including sumi-e and modern art works from the two national museums, the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Korea and the National Museum of China, are introduced in four sections. I was able to compare and confirm the works from the two countries made with the same materials at the same time and examine the differences.

#January Travel Support Event I visited the Deoksugung branch of the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, a special space where Deoksugung Palace and modern art meet. It was a unique experience to see various works of modern art in the quiet Deoksugung Palace. This exhibition was impressive with modern and contemporary Korean and Chinese paintings, and the works that blended the past and present were especially memorable because I could see another painting within the painting. Appreciating the works while feeling the atmosphere of Deoksugung Palace left a deeper impression. I highly recommend you experience the harmony between the beauty of Deoksugung Palace and the art museum! 🕒 Operating hours: 10:00 - 18:00 (Tue) 10:00 - 21:00 (Wed) 10:00 - 18:00 (Thu) 10:00 - 18:00 (Fri) 10:00 - 21:00 (Sat) 10:00 - 18:00 (Sun) Regular holidays (every Monday) 📍 Location: 61 Deoksugung-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul (in Deoksugung Palace) 💡 Viewing tips: It's even better if you enjoy the Deoksugung walking course after visiting the museum! #Deoksugung #TravelPlan #SeoulTravel #DomesticTravel #trip #Trip.com #DeoksugungArtMuseum #NationalMuseumofModernArt #NaverBlogYellowYellow #YellowYellow

#January Travel Support Event #Exhibition Game Society This exhibition was planned to examine the impact of the grammar and aesthetics of games on contemporary art, visual culture, and even our lives and society, 50 years after the advent of video games. Game Society focuses on the powerful synchronization process between society and games that was accelerated by the pandemic. This exhibition examines the background of the virtualization of society and the realism of virtual space becoming everyday life, and presents the theme of ‘What kind of experiences can games deliver and share?’

Many people ask if it is a sibling because it has a similar appearance to Deoksugung Seokjojeon. Surprisingly, it is not. The appearance is similar, but the materials are different and the construction style is also subtly different. It was first started as an art museum under the name of 'Lee Royal Family Art Museum'. It continued to function as an art museum even after liberation and continues to this day. #2025Overseas Travel Event

#October Good Places 2024 Shoutoku Ancient City is beautiful and cool, no need to enter the photo, the city maple leaf apricot trees turn yellow in October autumn, yellow, green and red, full of layering, right next to city hall station, extremely convenient

#OutdoorDate To welcome the cool autumn weather, a Disney exhibition is being held at Dondeokjeon in Deoksugung Palace. This is a place where you can see works created by young artists with Korean elements. I recommend it because you can see the beautiful Deoksugung Palace up close as well as Korean Disney works by paying only 1,000 won for the Deoksugung Palace admission fee (free for those under 24 and over 65). There are a total of 8 works, 7 in Dondeokjeon and 1 outdoors, and there is also an outdoor character photo spot, so if you are planning an outdoor date in the fall, I recommend it!

The 'National Academy of Korean Arts', where only those who have made outstanding achievements in the Korean art field can be listed, has celebrated its 70th anniversary. You can feel the meaning of the phrase 'art is eternal' by looking at the works of the current living members and the deceased. The structure reminiscent of the Ho-Am Art Museum and the scenery where the past and present coexist when you come out of the museum after viewing the exhibition are also sights worth keeping in mind. ⚠️ Exhibition Period: Until October 13, 2024 🌳 Address: National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Deoksugung 🌻 Fee : Free ⚘ Tip : There are four exhibition halls in total, and if you go up to the second floor, there are chairs where you can rest.
