National Museum of World Writing Systems 국립세계문자박물관
A white ribbon-shaped national museum in Songdo Central Park devoted entirely to how humans write, tracing scripts from cuneiform and hieroglyphs through to Hangul. The permanent exhibition is fully bilingual with strong English text, admission is free, and the building itself is worth photographing from the park lawn. It opened in 2023, so it rarely appears in foreign-language guides yet — go on a weekday and combine it with a canal-side walk through the park.
Local context
Songdo families treat the ground-floor cafe and lawn as part of their park routine, so weekend afternoons get busy with strollers while the galleries stay calm. If you are curious about Hangul specifically, the final section frames it within world script history better than most Korean museums do.
