Amore Pasific Museum

Seoul is one of the largest art centers in Asia, and has now become a major player in the global art business. Because of these factors, many museums offer various types of impressive collections. For those who want to know about Korean history, you can visit the Korean National Museum or the War Memorial of Korea museum.

Because I love art and pop culture, the museum I recommend is the Amore Pacific Museum of Art, which collects, researches, and exhibits ancient Korean art as well as contemporary Korean and international art while helping researchers, scholars, and young artists. Once you arrive at the entrance to this building, you are presented with a very beautiful modern style interior design with all white walls.

On the 2nd floor there is also a cafe so that we as visitors can sit and enjoy the atmosphere there. The interior of the museum also has a large space with a unique walking path following the sequence of various installation art displays. As a visitor I enjoyed the time to think about each collection, because of the uniqueness and names, story concepts, installation art forms, coupled with the various movements and lighting arrangements.

Another unique experience was going to the Daelim museum because my Korean friend invited me before returning to Indonesia. At that time there was an exhibition entitled "Nothing is Sacred" created by MSCHF, an arts and media company from Brooklyn, New York. MSCHF is known for making viral and controversial products that always generate a lot of media attention. The exhibition displays 100 diverse works spanning many styles and media. The exhibition presents boundary-pushing ideas that encourage disruption of social and cultural norms and that weaponize easily digestible objects and images of popular culture as a means to convey their messages.

One of his most famous works today is the big red boots inspired by astro boy. The shoes are large in size, comparable to those worn by Astro Boy. At Daelim Museum we can try on these shoes for free and take as many photos as you like. The shoes are red, yellow and black.
