SEOUL, Dec. 19 (Korea Bizwire) At the heart of Seoul is Jongchinbu, a historic building that was used as the headquarters of an office overseeing royal family affairs during the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910).
The building, which had been relocated to several different places near the royal palace of Gyeongbok, returned to its original spot less than 10 years ago when the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art (MMCA) was being built.
