Apple Computer Museum
애플컴퓨터박물관
About
A hands-on timeline of Apple computers, from an Apple 1 kit and Lisa to Macintosh, iMac and iBook, in a small Seomyeon museum.
The collection here is arranged as a timeline of Apple machines: it starts with an Apple 1 kit and Apple II, then moves through the Lisa and Macintosh models to PowerMac, iMac and iBook. It is a small museum on the second floor of the Bando Building in Seomyeon, not a broad technology exhibition, so the pleasure is in seeing familiar design ideas change from one generation to the next. Apple 3 and the 20th anniversary Macintosh are among the rarer machines visitors mention seeing in person. Some computers can be operated, which makes this more than a room of cases and labels. The owner or curator explains the collection and gives a talk about Steve Jobs in a small education space; visitors describe the staff as friendly and knowledgeable. If you know Apple products, the Lisa and early all-in-one Macs are good reasons to take your time. If you are visiting with children, the hands-on element gives them something to do beyond looking at old hardware, and the chronology offers a clear way into the history even without specialist knowledge. Admission, including the experience fee, is ₩10,000 per person; a family pass for three or four costs ₩20,000. The museum is open Monday through Saturday, 11:00–18:00, with last entry at 17:00. It closes on Sundays and holidays, so check before making a special trip. Group visits are possible and can be reserved through the museum website. Allow time to follow the collection in order and hear the explanation rather than treating this as a quick stop. The individual ticket may feel expensive if you have little interest in Apple or retro computers; enthusiasts and families looking for an educational, hands-on visit are more likely to find the time and fee worthwhile.
