Interesting museum that displays masks from all over the world. Masks are worn for different events, ceremonies, etc. Majority of displays have Hangul/English translations. Hahoe Village is a site of the folk tale regarding the masks. Take time to learn about the tale. Recommend stopping by to see the museum before or after your trip to Hahoe Folk Village. The museum has a small cafe that offers sweets and drinks. They also have a great gift shop if you would like to take a treasure home.

I definitely recommend visiting this museum. It’s a treasure of Korean culture. A quick visit can take 30 minutes, but if you want to read all about Korean culture from life to death, I recommend dedicating at least 1 hour -1.5 hours for your visit. Very inexpensive, entrance fee was only 1000₩. Parking is free. This site is close to the folk village and the bridge. You can visit all three in the same day.
