It is said that Korean novelist Yoon Hu-myeong also appreciated the structure of the guesthouse, saying, “It is an interesting place.” Built in the 1930s, the house, which has many storage places, was taken by the owner couple in spring 2014 as they were attracted by the house during their trip to Seochon. After the repair work, the ground floor of the house was opened for guests from January 2016, hoping that guests could share their daily experiences and stories with each other.

La puerta Namdaemun, cuyo nombre oficial es Sungnyemun, es un Tesoro Nacional de Corea. Tiene una entrada con forma de arco en el centro de una plataforma levantada de piedras. Sobre la misma, se elevan los pilares y el techo dividiendo al portal en nivel superior e inferior. En los laterales Este y Oeste, tiene abiertas puertas para entrar y salir.
El césped verde que rodea a la plataforma muestra las huellas de una antigua fortaleza. Cuando el monarca fundador de la dinastía Joseon, Lee Seong-Gye (que reinó de 1335 a 1408), hizo construir la ciudad capital, creía que en caso de incendio, el fuego alcanzaría el palacio Gyeongbokgung como así también el interior de la capital porque el monte Gwanaksan de Seúl tiene la figura del fuego de acuerdo a los principios de geománticos del “feng-shui”. Por ello, el letrero de la puerta Sungnyemun fue escrito en sentido vertical para proteger a la ciudad del incendio, porque los caracteres chinos escritos en forma horizontal se semejan a la imagen del fuego. La ideografía del letrero de Sungnyemun es solemne, elegante y llena de fuerza, pero a la vez, prolija.
La ideografía es famosa por ser de puño y letra del príncipe Yangnyeongdaegun (que reinó de 1394 a 1462), el primogénito de Taejong (1367-1422) de la dinastía Joseon. Por las noches, las luces de las lámparas de mercurio ubicadas debajo de la puerta añaden más belleza a su estética natural.
