Le Musée National d'Art Contemporain de Séoul a ouvert ses portes en 2013 au centre de Séoul à côté du palais Gyeongbok. Le musée a adapté un concept de 'cour' pour mieux se mélanger aux alentours et lier organiquement l'extérieur et l'intérieur du bâtiment.
Sur le terrain du musée, il y avait autrefois quelques grandes organisations administratives de l'époque Joseon mais aussi les hôpitaux militaires lors de la colonisation japonaise. Ce site est un site historique tant sur le plan politique que culturel. Notez que le musée est fermé les mercredis et samedis.
*Jour de l'inauguration : 12 novembre 2013

The Hanok Smith Likes is an Italian restaurant that can be found in an alley near the Embassy of the Republic of Poland. The restaurant is famous for serving homemade Italian cuisine in traditional Korean house in Samcheong-dong.
The Smith in the restaurant’s name refers to a Mr. Smith, a virtual person cooks his favorite dishes in a hanok. One of the interesting aspects about this restaurant is that they serve hwadeok pizza (brick oven pizza) and pastas which are not the Korean dishes one might expect given the hanok exterior. They also serve salads, risotto, steak and wine at the restaurant. Particularly, the nighttime atmosphere of the restaurant offers a more serene and cozy experience thanks to the traditional hanok architecture.
