Korea House (한국의집) is a must-visit destination in Seoul as it offers a traditional experience of dining (Hanjeongsik – Korean table d’hote), refreshments, and more. The high end cultural complex is situated in a hanok so you can even enjoy and experience the traditional housing styles of South Korea.
It opened in 1957 as a guest house for domestic and foreign guests. Since then, it has transformed into what it is today – a center for experiencing everything traditionally Korean. Be it food, performance art, culture, or space, everything reflects the rich history of Joseon Dynasty.
