Seochon Guest House is nicknamed ‘Jaeminangol (interesting village)’ after Baekseok’s poem ‘Yeowunangol’, with the aim of providing a visit full of interesting experiences. Passing through a garden and entering the main building, the unique charm of this hanok building, the staircase to get to the first floor from daecheong (main floored room), catches the eye of the visitors. In addition, the building is decorated with various stylish objects including paintings and Korean musical instruments. The terrace situated on the first floor offers an open view of the surrounding area including roof tiles of hanok structures and alleyways in Seochon. 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. The guestrooms and the main floored room on the ground floor are open to guests, with the exception of the first floor, which is used by the owner couple. The living room is equipped with books, a curved TV, and a table. The tasty meal, which is served in the kitchen, consists of rice and soup with six side dishes and is much loved by guests. The guesthouse offers a total of four rooms – Jae Room, which is the most Korean-style room; Mi Room, which has a combined style of a Korean-style room and Western-style room; Nan Room, which is an ideal room for meditation with a beautiful paper window; and Ahn Room, which is equipped with a veranda and a pretty flowerbed. Every room has its separate charm with various comfortable bedding to provide a quiet and cozy bedroom for guests in the middle of the city. Furthermore, the guesthouse holds a pansori (epic chant) performance twice a year. The owner started learning how to sing pansori to promote the Korean culture and tradition to foreigners. When a pansori performance is held, the owner offers traditional Korean snacks and drinks including sikhye (sweet rice punch), sujeonggwa (cinnamon punch), traditional sweets and cookies, and tteok (rice cakes) to visitors, tourists, and performers.

Gwanghwamun est la porte principale du Palais Gyeongbukgung, fondé en 1395, par le premier empereur de la dynastie Joseon, Taejo.

C’est la porte du sud parmi les quatre portes de la capitale sud-coréenne. Son nom signifie “Que la Lumière de l’Illumination recouvre le Monde!” et elle porte le but profond que les gens qui ont fondé la dynastie Joseon avait, en créant une nouvelle dynastie.

La Porte Gwanghwamun a été construite de granite. Au centre, il y a une entrée ressemblant à un arc-en-ciel, appelée Hongyemun, et au-dessus, se trouve la tour de la porte. La Porte Gwanghwamun renferme un souvenir douloureux dans l’histoire de la Corée. Durant l’ occupation japonaise de la Corée, de façon à tuer les esprits des citoyens coréens, le général du gouvernement japonais avait détruit la porte et construit son propre bâtiment gouvernemental. L’apparence réelle de la porte est celle de 1968 lorsqu’elle a été reconstruite en utilisant du béton, et elle est située environ à 10m derrière le point d’origine. Pour restituer la forme d'origine de la porte, le gouvernement a entrepris des travaux d'aménagement à partir de 2006, ces travaux se sont terminés le 15 août en 2010.
