History
Seoul Arts High School was founded on March 21, 1953 as Ewha Arts High School by the Yooha School Foundation, which was later renamed Ewha School Foundation and is the same foundation that operates Ewha Girls' High School and its other satellite schools. The name was changed later that year to reflect the school's coeducational status. Originally a government-aided school, it was granted autonomous (private) status, effective from the 2003-04 academic year. The school held a special exhibition in 2013 to celebrate its 50th anniversary. The incumbent principal Gum Nan-se (???) was appointed in 2014 and is the school's eighth principal.
