Korea Furniture Museum is located on a green hillside in a quiet residential area in Seoul, overlooking the city. The museum consists of ten houses and more than 2500 pieces of traditional Korean furniture, brought together from different locations, and the items are all part of the a private collection, which the founder and director Mi Sook Jung made available to the public in 1993.

From the guided tours, you learn not only about the artefacts themselves, but also about their history and relationship to the founder of the museum, providing an intimate perspective on culture, art, and craftsmanship in the period spanning from the late Joseon-era to early modern times. A must-do for anyone interested in art and design.
