National Museum of Korea to czołowe muzeum historii i sztuki Korei, ukazujące kulturę półwyspu od prehistorii po czasy współczesne. W sześciu stałych galeriach można zobaczyć takie skarby jak złota korona Silli, dwa bliźniacze posągi zamyślonych bodhisattwów oraz dziesięciokondygnacyjna pagoda z epoki Goryeo ze świątyni Gyeongcheonsa. W 2005 roku muzeum przeniosło się do obecnej, specjalnie zaprojektowanej siedziby na kampusie w Yongsan. Organizuje też zmieniający się program ważnych wystaw czasowych z udziałem twórców i instytucji z całego świata.
