The facts

The Busan Museum, offers seven regular exhibition rooms spread over three floors in addition to the Kiln Exhibition Hall, and the Outdoor Exhibition Hall. Opened in 1978, the museum has taken on a leading role in preserving traditional culture in Busan by obtaining a wealth of relics from strong excavation efforts, generous donations and purchases, and by meticulous research.

The museum was remodeled in 2002 along with the opening of Exhibition Hall 2. The wide array of relics ranges from the Prehistoric Age to the modern period. The Outdoor Exhibition Hall is home to precious pagodas, Buddhist statues, and monuments. There are over 6,000 items from excavations in Busan and the Gyeongnam area in addition to items that have been purchased, donated, and collected. Those relics reveal the important historical and cultural heritage of Busan.

If you are a history geek like I am, this is an interesting place to visit :) And it's free, so there's not a lot of reason to not sneak a peek.
When you want to know of the happenings from another country's perspective, then this is interesting. Just have a quick look around read about the history and stroll around.
Though it is not very elaborate, it only talked about Korean and Japan relations since 1700-1800’s from a Korean perspective.
