I visited the national museum of Korea today. I stayed at Dongdaemun area, near subway line 4. I use T-money card as it is the most convenient way to use the subway, instead of purchasing subway ticket. One can always take the Jungang line to Ichon Station and find the museum in the underground /underpass or exit No 2. If you prefer to take the bus, use the blue bus #502 or #405B and stop at bus stop at the National Museum of Korea.

Many school children visited this National Museum, Seoul, Korea

I personally did not find this tour interesting as compared to the tour at the war memorial. However, I think it could be different if it had been another tour guide.
