The Leeum Museum of Art in Hannam-dong, Itaewon, is an art museum established by the Samsung Cultural Foundation. It emphasizes that the building itself is a work of art that is harmoniously compatible with nature. The beauty of the spatial design and the high level of the collection make it an absolute must-visit attraction in Seoul.

Leeum, Samsung Museum of Art has three buildings, all designed by internationally renowned architects. Its simple and neat geometric appearance is low-key yet impressive, combining past, modern and future art and culture.

The first museum mainly displays ancient Korean art, showing the amazing collection of Samsung Group, including porcelain, calligraphy and painting, Buddhist relics, metal crafts and wood crafts, etc., which are all precious cultural heritage of Korea.

The second and third museums focus on contemporary art, with digital audio-visual and interactive experiences, from paintings, sculptures, installations, photos, videos, etc., such as the currently popular immersive experience, which is really worth coming to improve your aesthetic literacy.
