The Museum of Modern Korean Literature is the only public comprehensive literature museum in Korea built by remodeling an old warehouse building near Incheon Open Port. It is a space where you can look at the formation and development process of modern Korean literature at a glance and experience it in various ways. It is composed of a permanent exhibition hall and a special exhibition hall. The permanent exhibition hall is comprised of four buildings utilizing warehouse buildings built during the Japanese colonial period, and opened in 2013 by reorganizing spaces previously used as logistics warehouses and kimchi factories. In the exhibition hall, you can look at the history of modern Korean literature by period from 1894 to 1948, and understand the flow of modern literature through magazines, literary works, and related materials of the time.
