Siheung Oido Museum

시흥오이도박물관 · Gyeonggi · Museums & galleries

The place of Kuk Yeonsoo and Choi Ung's hug from behind · Oido, an island that was isolated from the mainland until 100 years ago, became inland with the creation of the Gunja Salt Farm and the construction of the Sihwa Embankment. It is the largest shell mound historic site on the west coast, and various Neolithic artifacts have been excavated, and the entire island has been designated as Historic Site No. 441. Inside the museum, which records the history of Oido, there are various interesting experiences and exhibitions that give a glimpse of life in the Neolithic Age. Outside the building, there is an overpass with many pillars where Kuk Yeonsoo gave Choi Ung a back hug. On the floor of the branch, there is a sticker that reads ‘Our Beloved Summer’, so it's good to take a commemorative photo. ·
