The Seosomun Shrine History Museum inaugurated its “Love and Peace For All” exhibition in a ceremony that drew Catholic leaders both near and far.

A new exhibition at South Korea’s Seosomun Shrine History Museum is honoring 60 years of diplomatic bonds between South Korea and the Holy See. A November 17 ceremony to formally open the display was attended by South Korean delegates and representatives of the Catholic Church, both local and from the Vatican.

According to a press release, the event was attended by various notable figures, including Cardinal Yeom, Archbishop Peña Parra, Archbishop Peter Soon-taick Chung OCD of Seoul, Monsignors Mario Codamo and Fernando Duarte Barros Reis. North Korea was represented by In-chon Yu, Minister of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, which was pivotal in the funding of the exhibition.
