Subject : Folk Museum
Folk Museum is a cultural space for natural enjoying and understanding of the history and traditional culture of Korea rather than learning.  

Opened in January of 1989 in Jamsil, the place of Songpa Market and Songpa-sandaenori, Lotte Folk Museum was born as a cultural service of Lotte Group for the people. It is a lively cultural space with 5000 years of history and tradition of Korea that is easily accessible and enjoyable to the people.

Traditionally, museum’s roles were collection, storage and exhibition of historical remains, but the current role includes being a place of interests to the tourists in order to expose people of the world to our history and tradition that is easily accessible and enjoyable to the public.

Thus, the Folk Museum transcends the concept of showcase exhibitions, and uses various exhibition techniques such as diorama, miniature village, restored historical remains so that Koreans and foreigners alike can understand our history easily without prior special knowledge. There are performance stages for traditional music and dance, and a market street with traditional Korean foods, recreating the lively atmosphere of the traditional markets so that visitors can enjoy the traditional culture through direct experience.

The history and traditional culture of a country cannot be understood through a short time of learning and watching. It can be understood properly when a person can experience and feel it directly while enjoying it. Lotte World Folk Museum is a cultural space and tourist attraction for natural understanding of our history and traditional culture while enjoying it. We will strive to improve ourselves in the future.
