Haegeumgang Theme Museum

Haegeumgang Theme Museum, Cultural museum in Nambu-myeon, South Korea.

Haegeumgang Theme Museum is a two-storey museum beside the Haegeum River on Geoje island, opened in 2016. Its long white single-storey facade is divided by columns and arched niches holding white statues of horses and figures, with a carved crest above the sign. Inside are the Museum of Modern Korean History, the Museum of European Decorative Accessories and the Yukyung Art Museum.

The museum opened in 2016 beside the Haegeum River on Geoje Island, founded to link Korean tradition with contemporary art. A typhoon in 2019 destroyed half of the two-storey building; it was fully restored and rebuilt in 2020. It is directed by Yu Chun-up, chairman of the International Culture and Art Federation in South Korea.

The museum has hosted the Geoje Art Festival since 2016, bringing artists from more than 35 countries who work around the theme "Freedom and Peace". In 2021 it showed "Peace Again" with 280 artists from 63 countries, among them Vijay Sharma, Daniel Garbade and Michael Lam. The Yukyung Art Museum also mounts temporary shows by international contemporary artists.

The museum is easy to reach and has facilities accessible to visitors with different needs. Plan to spend about two to three hours exploring the displays at a comfortable pace.
