Located at the top of Insadong's pedestrian street, the Museum of Craft Art opened in 2021 in what was the former Pungmoon Girls' High School, and the site of a royal residence.

Exhibitions are spread across several buildings, but all indoors with ample air-conditioning to shielf from the intense summer sun. Admission is free and you need at least 2 hours to go through the museum.















Bojagi is a rectangular wrapping cloth used to store, decorate, and carry valuable items. This exhibition showcases a variety of these items from royal to ordinary uses. Official records from the Joseon Dynasty already noted bojagi of different colours, sizes, and materials were used in the palace.
