The main reason I visited this museum was to see the exhibition by Choe U-ram. The exhibition was great, and I found out that HYUNDAI motor supports artists a lot. The museum has a spacious and arty atmosphere. The people there were also super nice. I was wrongly going to buy an art book in Korean but the cashier lady noticed that I am not a Korean speaking person then she changed it to an English one! There are two nice cafes, so you can take a rest in between the exhibitions.

They have exhibition until September, 11. Its free entrance. On the basement the gallery make so much noise hard to focus. Some modern art gallery was cool. The Korean artist created a unique paint style. On weekend so many people and long line for going to the parking lot.

This is a really interesting museum to visit that offers something of interest to everyone. This applies even if you are not a fan of contemporary art. There are so many exhibits that you could easily spend whole hours here. Plus its free after 6 pm on certain days.

Beautiful building. We paid ₩4000 each to see the two exhibits and it was well worth it. The exhibits were immersive and powerful. The visitors are young and old, Korean and not.

The exhibits are an absolute joke. Projecting snippets from old movies on to a white screen in a dimly lit room is not art no more than microwaving leftover pizza is cooking. Overall, MMCA is a testament to the pitiful state of modern art - or any type of art, for that matter - in this country.

Being juxtaposed right next to one of the oldest buildings of the city—which is arguably the country’s most important cultural symbol—this public art museum seems to continue being today’s focal point for Korea’s art and culture.

To be honest the main exhibit I wanted to visit (and in my opinion worth to seeis the Lee Kun Hee collection - it was all reserved online weeks ago and there are no available tickets on the day. Bit disappointing, it also looks like its only a limited run. I wish the exhibit was at a larger museum (Like the national museum near Ichon Stationthat could have more people visit and appreciate it. Hopefully the Monets from Lee Kun Hees vast collection goes to that museum instead. The other exhibits in this museum are small and not really impressive. The staff are kind and helpful.

My visit to MMCA in Seoul exceeded my expectation. I got to see some of the most influential Korean artists works like Chung Sang Hwas. I thought it was well curated and the guide app of MMCA was also perfect as it provided good explanation about the artworks. Worth to note that you can only visit upon online pre-reservation. Each visit is allowed up to 2 hours and the museum ticket is free of charge.

Also you can go out explore other parts of the gallery or even the town!But make sure you come back before closing time. Otherwise you wont able to get your bag out....
