The museum stands on the fields of Wonchon, where Yi Yuk-sa was born. Inside you move from handwritten manuscripts and poetry collections to independence-movement records, then walk next door to Yugudang, his restored birthplace. From the second-floor cafe window you can see the plain behind his poem "Wilderness". Read a poem first and the view starts to read back. Pair it with Dosan Seowon for a half day.
