Museum Hei

Overview

Museum HEI is a state-of-the-art media art venue that redefined the cultural landscape of Paju. Spanning over 6,600 square meters, it is one of the largest immersive art spaces in Asia.

History

Opened in mid-2024, Museum HEI was established to bridge the gap between traditional art and future technology. It was built on the site of a repurposed large-scale facility, transforming an industrial scale into a creative hub. Since its inception, it has quickly become a landmark of the Paju Tanhyeon tourist zone, attracting millions of visitors with its signature storytelling approach to digital art and its commitment to providing "healing through light."
