A small but exquisite private museum tucked inside a restored hanok in Bukchon, dedicated to traditional Korean folk art, shamanistic paintings (minhwa), and amulets. The collection is intimate and curated with real scholarly passion, offering a window into folk spirituality rarely seen in larger institutions. The hanok setting itself is part of the experience. Hours can be irregular so call ahead or check their site before visiting.
