There's no question that Seoul is a city for art lovers. From internationally renowned museums to obscure independent galleries, there's a space dedicated to just about every genre and medium of visual art. But it's not only in galleries that masterpieces can be found in the Korean capital.
Urban art, also known as street art, is becomming more common throughout university neighborhoods like Hongdae and Shinchon. Many of the murals that can be found in these areas are expressive and
offer insight into Korean culture. Still, few of these art spaces are as unique and aesthetic as those in Naksan Park in northern Seoul.
