Kim Koo Museum

The Kim Koo Museum is a memorial institution in Hyochang-dong, Yongsan District, Seoul, housed across two floors. The exhibition displays documents, artifacts, and multimedia materials that tell the story of Korea's independence movement.

The museum was established in 2002 to preserve the legacy of Kim Koo, a leader during Korea's independence struggle against Japanese rule. His efforts shaped the direction of Korean liberation movements in the early 20th century.

The building features traditional Korean architectural design that reflects the period of the independence movement. Visitors can sense how these spaces connect to the stories of people who worked toward Korea's freedom.

The museum is open from Tuesday through Sunday for self-guided exploration of the displayed materials. Groups can arrange guided tours in advance to learn more about the content on display.

The museum employs dioramas, scale models, and animated sequences to bring Kim Koo's biography to life. These exhibition techniques help visitors understand the experiences and atmosphere of the independence movement era.
