First opened in 1945 by the US Government following the Second World War, the National Folk Museum of Korea boasts nearly 100,000 artifacts and recreations of Korean history and culture.
Exhibition halls are divided among three themes: History of the Korean People (focusing on life from prehistoric times through the Daehan Empire), The Korean Way of Life (depicting life for ancient Koreans), and The Life cycle of Koreans (explaining how the Confucian ideology gave rise to many of the nation's customs).

Very nice video. I really liked the sounds of Korea at the beginning and the indoor shots gave a great feel for the museum. Lighting was really good. You da man!
