On the way to the museum.
Artist Lee Jungseop only lived in Jeju-do for about a year, but this museum is dedicated to this art.
Today’s exhibition is for Lee Jungseop’s 12 new art pieces given to the museum by Samsung’s Owner. The museum’s existing collections are not displayed today because of this special exhibition. A probable reason for that is the museum is not large enough to display both arts.
