It was located inside, so I walked slowly.If you think of it as a private collection, it seems amazing.Types made related to books are also on display.Making your own postcards is also possible as a one-day experience.They also sell simple drinks and book-related accessories such as postcards.A place worth seeing.

Most interesting museum I've been to in Korea. The man who owns the place will personally guide you through it and demonstrate how the old printing machinery works. It's a really unique experience because of the complexity of the Korean alphabet compared to Latin's 26 letters. Highly recommended. It also has fun activities for kids and adults.
