Bucheon Art Bunker

Opened in 2018 after a major renovation, the building preserves much of its industrial past — including the old furnace, chimney, and ash bunker — while hosting contemporary art exhibitions, performances, and workshops. The preserved furnace, chimney, and ash bunker show the building's former use as a waste incinerator.

Opened in 2001, this museum traces the 100-year history of Korean comics (manhwa), from a recreated 1960s-style rental comic shop to today's globally popular webtoons. The complex also includes a manhwa library, an animation screening hall, and hands-on activities like coloring your own webtoon panel — a fitting stop given Bucheon's status as host of the Bucheon International Comics Festival (BICOF) and Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival (BiFan).
