Lee Jung-seob Observation Deck
Lee Jung-seob Observation Deck Overview
The Lee Jung-seob Observation Deck is believed to be the location where the painter Lee Jung-seob depicted the scenery of Beomil-dong. It offers a clear view of Busan Port and the Beomil-dong area, where visitors can view Lee Jung-seob’s artworks and letters written to his family. At the observatory café, guests can experience calligraphy or acrylic painting. Nearby, at the Lee Jung-seob Street Art Museum and the Hap100 Stairs, one can see his paintings and letters. Lee Jung-seob fled to Busan in 1950, lived in Beomil-dong in 1951, and held his first solo exhibition at Midopa Gallery in 1955. He is a renowned painter of modern and contemporary Korean history, famous for his Fauvist-inspired vivid colors and line-drawing-focused works.
