Reliving the Miracle on the Han River

#seoulspots

What makes the National Museum of Korean Contemporary History so powerful is its focus on the economic and social transformation of the country. The exhibits vividly document the postwar rebuilding and the astonishing speed of industrialization—the period often called The Miracle on the Han River. You see displays of early Korean-made goods, original factory settings, and personal stories that convey the sheer hard work and sacrifices made by an entire generation. This section is deeply inspiring, showcasing not just historical facts, but the indomitable spirit and determination that fueled Korea's incredible rise on the global stage.
