Gongjin Village's living quarters
This is where the residents of Gongjin Village live, with Hongbanjang's house on the sea side and Hyejin's house on the hill. However, these houses are inhabited by real residents, so you should look around quietly from the outside. Passing the village hall where the residents were having a feast and reaching the end of the breakwater, there is a red lighthouse where Hongbanjang and Hyejin had their wedding. The clear color makes it even prettier in the photo, so be sure to take a proof shot.

Oksanseowon Confucian Academy was built to commemorate the academic achievements and virtues of Confucian scholar Yi Eon-jeok (1491-1553). It was founded in 1572, the fifth year of King Seonjo’s reign, and received its current name the following year. It was one of the 47 Confucian academies that was ruled out from the Confucian academy abolition order made by Heungseon Daewongun. Although the building structures do not carry significant meaning in architectural aspect, the distinguished space arrangement of the buildings is hard to go unnoticed. Dokrakdang Hall, which was Yi Eon-jeok’s vacation annex as well as his study room, is situated 700 meters away to the north from Oksanseowon.
