In no era other than that of King Sejong has the country been blessed with so many talented individuals.

King Sejong set off a cultural renaissance by nurturing talent in various fields. Behind the brilliant achievements of talented individuals in each field was King Sejong’s persistent support and initiative. His timely policies ultimately led to a rich cultural legacy, the fruits of which we enjoy even today. In celebration of the 600th anniversary of the installation of King Sejong the Great, the National Museum of Korea has organized this special presentation of state-designated cultural properties displaying the culture and spirit of his reign.
