About the museum

Korea’s first and only golf museum, presenting 500 years of world golf history and 100 years of Korean golf at a glance.

SUPERIOR — which made Korea’s first golfwear, officially sponsored the Superior Open and the KPGA Korean Tour, and discovered and nurtured world-class golfer K.J. Choi — founded and runs Korea’s first golf museum to celebrate the rising stature of Korean golf.

From the origins of golf and the evolution of clubs and balls to profiles of famous players, the history of the four majors, and the story of Korean golf, more than 500 artifacts are on permanent display in about 500 m². The Korean Professional Golfers Hall of Fame introduces Korea’s great golfers in detail.
