100th Anniversary of Hangul Proclamation Special Exhibition — « A Single Rise, Infinite Ascents »
한글날 제정 100주년 기념 기획특별전 <일구이륙 무한이륙>
This exhibition chronicles a century of Hangul's history, from its first commemoration in 1926 as « Gagyeol Day » to its current status as a national holiday. It explores how Hangul evolved across different periods, serving as a guardian of national identity during occupation, then transforming into a personal tool of expression and global cultural heritage. Visitors discover the deep relationship between Koreans and their unique alphabet, while envisioning its unlimited future.
