Inside the art museum |
Go to the art museum and view various works of art. An exhibition of Kim Chang-wan’s work that I learned about while viewing. It is exhibited under the name of Kim Chang-wan, a painter, not Kim Chang-wan as a singer. In addition, you can see the works of various painters with vivid colors, and the colorful paintings in a colorless space are a delight to the eyes.
