4. Background of Project
- In April 2021, bereaved family members of late Samsung Group chairman, Lee Kun-hee, announced that they would donate 23,181 pieces of ancient, modern, and contemporary art works to the country without any strings attached. This was in accordance with the late chairman's wishes to "share his love for our cultural assets and artworks with the people." The Lee Kun-hee Collection (hereinafter referred to as the Collection), which was expanded and developed by the late Lee Kun-hee and his wife, Hong Ra-hee, based on the collection of the late Chairman Lee Byung-chul, the first chairman of Samsung Group, has the potential to serve as a valuable library of Korean aesthetics for research and exhibition of Korean ancient and contemporary artworks, as well as a medium for value expansion that can connect the past and future, Korea and the world. In July 2021, the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism announced the ‘Plan for Utilizing the Late Lee Kun-hee Collection’, which includes the establishment of a Donation Hall to effectively integrate and manage the Collection and share it with the public, and four basic principles for utilizing it: (1) Respecting the purpose of the national donation and spreading the value of the donation to expand opportunities for people to enjoy culture; (2) Implementing creativity based on cultural fusion and convergence; (3) Expanding cooperation with experts and domestic and international museums; and (4) Amplifying the brand as a cultural powerhouse through the creation of cultural and industrial values. In November 2021, the National Committee on Utilization of the Lee Kun-hee Collection deliberated and resolved on Songhyeon-dong as the museum site. The project of establishing the museum was initiated against this background, and the (tentative) Lee Kun-hee Museum (hereinafter referred to as the Museum) will play a role in maximizing and sharing the value of the Lee Kun-hee Collection.
