Το Amorepacific Museum of Art (APMA) ξεκίνησε από την προσωπική συλλογή του ιδρυτή της Amorepacific, Suh Sung-whan, ο οποίος συγκέντρωνε κεραμικά, χειροτεχνήματα και υφάσματα που συνδέονται με τις γυναίκες, τα καλλυντικά και την κορεατική κουλτούρα του τσαγιού. Άνοιξε το 1979 ως Pacific Museum και μετονομάστηκε το 2009. Το 2018 μεταφέρθηκε σε υπόγειο εκθεσιακό χώρο κάτω από τα κεντρικά γραφεία της Amorepacific στο Yongsan, έναν μινιμαλιστικό λευκό κύβο σχεδιασμένο από τον βραβευμένο με Pritzker David Chipperfield. Σήμερα, το μουσείο παρουσιάζει εναλλασσόμενο πρόγραμμα εκθέσεων με έργα από την κορεατική αρχαιότητα και τη διεθνή σύγχρονη τέχνη, καθώς και ομιλίες, εκδόσεις και προγράμματα φιλοξενίας για νέους καλλιτέχνες και ερευνητές.
