A place worth knowing

General palace admission is KRW1,000 for an adult visitor without a concession. Entry closes before the grounds do; individual halls have shorter hours and some visits need separate booking. Monday is normally closed, with holiday substitutions. Pair it with SeMA on a day both are open.
