Destination briefing

Why travelers stop here

The Lee Han-yeol Memorial Hall was established in 2004 with compensation money received by the martyr's mother from the state and citizen donations to preserve and restore the relics of Lee Han-yeol. It reopened as a private museum in 2014. This museum preserves, researches, and educates about the history of democracy through exhibitions, including the relics of Lee Han-yeol and records of the June Struggle of 1987. At the Lee Han-yeol Memorial Hall, artist Choi Byung-soo's Dream Sotdae is erected on the rooftop, a mural by artist Kim Ya-cheon adorns the garden wall, and a mosaic mural by artist Lee Kyung-bok greets visitors at the exhibition hall entrance. On the wall connecting the third and fourth floors of the exhibition hall, there is a portrait painting that led the funeral procession. The fourth-floor permanent exhibition hall displays the clothes and shoes he wore when he fell, along with photos and personal belongings. Additionally, visitors can see Lee Han-yeol's biography, the photo of the shooting scene captured by journalist Jung Tae-won (Reuters), his middle and high school belongings and writings, and records of the June Struggle.
