The National Museum of Korea is holding its fourth exhibition on the world’s great civilizations - Gods, Heroes and Mortals: art and life in ancient Greece. This exhibition will consist of 4 sections. Section 1 introduces Greek gods and myths. In Greek myth, the gods were depicted as beings having human features and emotions. Immortal beings with supernatural powers, deities such as Zeus, Hera, and others on Mount Olympus tell us how the Greeks thought about and envisioned their gods. Through the harsh and troubled journey of “Superman” Herakles, who was born a human but became a god, we learn about the ancient Greek idea that emphasized physical training and exercise, as well as the contrast between the human-like gods of Olympos and the weird monsters of Greek myth.
