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.

Following his mother’s footsteps, the son of the previous owner is now managing the family business.

While the meat itself has almost no fat, the fat portion is extremely soft and savory. This restaurant is also different from the others in that it provides kongnamul-guk (bean sprout soup) with the jokbal (steamed pork hock). Pyeongyang-style naengmyeon (cold noodles) and tteok-mandu-guk (rice cake-dumpling soup) are also delicious. Pyeongyang naengmyeon is cooked to suit South Korean tastebuds. Besides, the noodles and dumplings are hand-made. Despite the restaurants long history, the building of the restaurant is clean and well-maintained as it was being rebuilt after a fire in the 1980s.
