DDP Luggage Storage: Will My Bags Fit? What are the Fees?

I was visiting for the KIKINI Special Exhibition and my bags were heavy, so I really wanted to store them. Unfortunately, there was no way to store luggage inside the KIKINI exhibition hall itself, or within the DDP Museum exhibition area.

Many travelers, like me, arrive with suitcases.

Thankfully, there are various locker sizes, both large and small!

Especially useful for travelers like myself who need to store a large suitcase, there are ample large-sized lockers available.

Using the lockers is straightforward; just follow the instructions on the screen. But I bet you're curious about the fees!

The fees are structured as follows. I've summarized them in the table below!

Type	Small	Medium	Large
Base Rate (4 hours)	~$2	~$3	~$4
Approx. Size	Backpack, small shopping bag	Carry-on suitcase, large backpack	24-inch+ suitcase
Overtime Fee	Additional charge per 4 hours
Payment Methods	Card, T-Money, Alipay, WeChat Pay

After dropping off my bags, I explored DDP with so much more freedom and truly enjoyed the exhibitions! It made a huge difference.

If you've been hesitant to explore DDP or the surrounding Dongdaemun area because of heavy luggage, I highly recommend using these lockers!

Traveling without bags made for a much more satisfying experience.

What if you need to store your luggage for longer?

DDP's luggage storage fees are charged based on a 4-hour period, and if you exceed 4 hours, an additional late fee is applied.

For example, if you use a locker for 5 hours, you'll pay the base 4-hour fee plus an additional 4-hour late fee. (It's easiest to think of it as being charged for a total of 8 hours!)
