| Korea Stamp World is located on the 2nd basement floor of Seoul Central Post Office. The museum is designed to help visitors learn about postage stamps. It has also emerged as a place where people who are keen about philately can exchange information about postage stamps. Korea Stamp World consists of four sections: The Postal Service History Gallery, the Hands-on Postage Stamp Experience Gallery, the Postage Stamp Information Gallery and Philately Class. The museum also features various special exhibitions and events such as the “Create Your Own Stamps” event. Also, “Stamp Culture Market” takes place in the museum where visitors can buy a wide range of philately supplies. In 2009, the market opens from June 26th to 27th, from September 5th to 6th and from October 10th to 11th. * The 24th Asian International Stamp Exhibition will take place from July 30th, 2009 to August 4th, 2009 in Hall B (the former Indian Hall), COEX Mall, Seoul.
