A museum in Gahoe-dong, South Korea.

About

This building, nestled among the old houses of Gahoe-dong, Seoul, still retains traces of a traditional hanok. Sunlight seeping between the wooden pillars and indigo-hued walls quietly fills the space as if holding onto the past. The corridor leading to the exhibition hall guides visitors along a serene flow, and on one side, folk paintings capturing the charm of the hanok quietly catch the eye. On the other side, content that transcends eras fills the space, blending with the surrounding quiet to leave a deep lingering impression.
