Inaugurado en 1992 bajo el nombre de Museo Real, el actual Museo Nacional de los Palacios de Corea expone reliquias de la dinastía Joseon (1392-1910). Aquí se presentan cerca de 20.000 reliquias reales de los palacios Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung y Changgyeonggung así como las del santuario Jongmyo.

1. Símbolos y documentos reales - La dinastía Joseon defendía las ideas confucionistas, el rey estaba considerado como el soberano absoluto y la pareja real representaba, junto con la reina, los padres de todo el pueblo. Para realzar su autoridad, la dinastía hizo fabricar diversos símbolos reales.

2. Ritos ancestrales - Un rito ancestral se llevaba a cabo en el santuario que alberga las lápidas de los reyes y reinas de la dinastía Joseon. Este rito no era solo una ceremonia de culto de la familia real, sino también una fiesta de música y danza celebrada para desear la salvación y la prosperidad eterna del país.

3. Arquitectura del palacio – El palacio era una residencia para el rey y su familia y el centro de política y administración, donde el rey gobernaba el país. El centro del palacio de la dinastía Joseon, según los planos de arquitectura tradicional, comprendía Jeongjeon, el vestíbulo principal como centro de los acontecimientos del Estado y de conversaciones políticas y Pyeonjeon, la oficina del gobierno.

4. Ciencias de Joseon – Durante su primer periodo, la dinastía Joseon intentaba establecer la legitimidad de su fundación y enriquecer el país. Con el fin de cumplir estos ideales, la dinastía promovía como nunca antes dominios tales como la ciencia, la medicina y desarrollaba diversas armas para la defensa nacional.

5. Vida de la familia real – El rey y la reina eran las figuras simbólicas de la dinastía Joseon, pero eran también como el pueblo normal en su vida privada de palacio. El palacio estaba dividido en diferentes secciones: oficina del rey, residencia para la reina, despacho del príncipe heredero. Cada espacio contenía muebles apropiados, que estaban fabricados con materiales de alta calidad según estrictos criterios para la familia real.
