MOCA started as a small exhibition space in Gyeongbokgung in 1969 and moved to Seokjojeon Hall, and in 1986 MOCA moved to Gwacheon to accommodate a larger collection with international pieces. Although Gwacheon is a favorable city for family visitors for the museum as well as a theme park, botanic garden, and a zoo, the museum has been being rather difficult to reach due to the scarcity of the public transportation. Consequently in 1998 MOCA Deoksugung reopened in the west hall of Seokjojeon in Deoksugung, and now another wing is being built in Samcheong-dong for even more exposure of contemporary art to the general public.
