The Gyeonggi Provincial Museum plans to hold The One Thousand Year Journey through Gyeonggi History as a special exhibition to celebrate the year 2018, the 1,000th anniversary of the naming of ‘Gyeonggi.’ The event takes place November 29 (Wed), 2017 through March 4 (Sun), 2018, providing visitors with an overview of the 1,000-year history of Gyeonggi. A thousand years is a period of time too long for us to grasp, feeling so far away from us. In the exhibition, you will meet a fictitious character whose name is Oh Gyeong-gi, born in 1018 in Gyeonggi Province, and listen to his life’s story. This will help you to learn about the long history of Gyeonggi a bit more vividly and easily.

I hope you will take The One Thousand Year Journey of Gyeonggi History, the special exhibition commemorating the ‘2018 Gyeonggi Millennium’, as an opportunity to look back into the past 1,000 years, as well as to dream about the next 1,000 years to come.
