Exploring Jeju’s culture of giving through Kim Man-deok’s life
Kim Man-deok Memorial Hall honors Kim Man-deok’s life and spirit of generosity. Between scenic stops on your Jeju trip, its biographical exhibitions offer a chance to consider how people lived at the time.
Read displays about traditional life together with the biographical explanations. Shifting attention from a successful merchant’s story to why she chose to give connects the exhibition material into a single narrative.

Ask children what they could share with neighbors facing difficulties. Rather than memorizing a detailed timeline, this guide suggests connecting scenes of everyday life in the exhibits with the people who received help.

From Sanjicheon Stream to culture in Jeju’s old town
The representative entrance address is 제주시 산지로 7. When approaching on foot around Sanjicheon Stream, watch traffic and crossings. Confirm your destination rather than assuming different old-town attractions occupy the same building.
Add Jejumok Gwana to compare administrative history with an individual’s life. If also visiting Jeju National Museum, consider exploring Jeju’s broader history first, then focusing on Kim Man-deok’s story.
