Gyodong Gaon is located right in the middle of the main street of Jeonju Hanok Village. The word "gaon" means "middle" in Korean. It's a two-story traditional Korean house that stands out among the rest of the traditional Korean houses in the alley leading to Omokdae. Just inside the gate is a yard with colorful flower trees, jars of sauces, and furnace. The mural on one of the walls is popular among the guests as a place to take photos.
The "numaru", or "loft" in Korean, overlooks the Hanok Village, and is one of the best places in the village to get a closer look at the 500 year old zelkova tree and the foot of the mountain nearby. Open to all the guests, the "numaru" is very popular during the winter as well as the summer. It's an open space with a wooden floor, so it's very cool during the summer, and it also serves as an observatory to enjoy the view of all the snow-covered trees and roofs in the Hanok Village during the winter while having a hot cup of tea.
The owner of the guesthouse has been living here for 37 years. He rebuilt his house and turned it into a hanok guesthouse in 2014 while making sure the rooms are well insulated and comfortable to stay.
He built a two-story building to make an efficient use of the space, and focused on making all the rooms look different. The house has five rooms, and only the “Meomulda Room” on the first floor is the only rooms with a living room separated from the bedroom. All you have to do is open the door to enjoy the view of the yard, Hanok Village, and Omokdae. The “Nanuda Room” on the second floor is the largest one that can accommodate more than five people, making it the most popular choice among families. The "Damda Room" and "Kkumkkuda Room" both have an attic that can be reached by a ladder. The attic is big enough to sleep two adults, and some guests actually sleep there for a unique experience. One of the walls of the attic is finished with cypress wood which has a pleasant scent. The “Geurida Room” has the best view through the two windows on the either side of the room, in addition to warm sunlight and cool wind that come through the window. Modern, not traditional, doors are installed in all the rooms for better sound proofing and insulation.
Gyodong Gaon offers a number of experience programs, such as traditional games like “gulleongsoe”, “tuho", and “Korean top”, As well as “sabang chigi”, “sampalseon”, and “ttangttameokgi”.
Many Korean adults are familiar with these games, while children and foreigners can find these games interesting. All these traditional Korean games are free to play.

Located in Jeonju Hanok Village, Yangsajae was the place where the poet Lee Byeong-gi (pen-name: Garam, sijo poet) composed his sijo (a Korean traditional poetic form) works. Now used as a cultural space, the house attracts many people looking for relaxation and cultural experiences.
Yangsajae, meaning “a house (jae) that cultivates (yang) classical scholars (sa)”, was an annex of the Jeonjuhyanggyo Confucian School where classical scholars used to study in preparation for the national civil service examinations. As an educational and creative place, Lee Byeong-gi composed sijo poems there for six years from 1951. It later served as the Jeonbuk Public Elementary School with the introduction of new learning to the Jeollabuk-do area in 1987. Since 2002, however, it has served as a hanok stay dedicated to promoting local history and traditions to the public. It is said that the building was constructed on a 400-year-old site about 150 years ago. In 1980, repair work was conducted to save the basic structure of the house.
The house is a typical ‘ㄱ’-shaped hanok structure with a half-hipped roof. In particular, the three dormitory rooms originally used by Confucian students and classical scholars can be converted into one single room for seminars, tea ceremonies, or other group meetings simply by opening the bunhapmun (sliding doors).
The guesthouse is a ‘ㅡ’-shaped hanok built in 1980. Each room has a clean and cozy interior with simple decoration and furniture. The rooms include the Gudeul (floor heated with firewood) Room, where the tea ceremony program using green tea leaves picked from the wild green tea field behind the house is held, and the Ondol (Korean floor heating system) Room.
As the poet Lee, who loved orchids, poems and alcohol, lived at Yangsajae, there are still traces of his former presence inside the house. Notably, Lee used the ‘Garamdasil’ room as his study room, so it displays some of his photos.
There is a postbox situated in a corner of the yard which the guests can use, and the owner will deliver the mail himself. Yangsajae is not only a hanok accommodation but also a multi-experience space where guests can discover traces of the old educational institute and the poet Lee’s life and works.

Yeohangga is a guesthouse owned and run by a woman who majored in early childhood education and who has been teaching children for over 20 years. The name means "A home for a happy trip," she says. It’s a unique guesthouse since the owner offers various traditional educational games. The cozy and comfortable guesthouse is a traditional Korean house built in March 2013 at a site where an old house used to be. The main building and detached building are divided by the ridge of the roof with beautiful rafters. There is another meaning to the name of the guesthouse: "a house where the woman is happy." She named it as such for a good reason. She used to live in Seoul when her parents advised her to move to Jeonju and run a guesthouse, leaving her husband and child behind. At first, she considered accepting only female guests, but it wasn't an option since most of the people visiting Jeonju are couples and groups of friends. Instead, she made sure the guesthouse is safe for women while building the house. Many female tourists traveling alone find this a great feature of the guesthouse because they feel safer during their stay. For one, she installed three doors for the rooms (1 transparent door, 1 opaque glass door, and a traditional Korean door). Not only do the guests feel safer; the rooms are also well-insulated thanks to the triple doors. The floors and walls are covered with traditional Korean paper coated with soybean oil, which is very environment-friendly. In the four rooms named “Spring,” “Summer,” “Autumn,” and “Winter,” there are many toys and materials for traditional Korean cognition games, such as “Chilgyo Game,” “Gonu Game,” and “Mabangjin.” It’s very likely that even Koreans have never heard of these games. The owner of the guesthouse chose these games specifically because they are perfect for children to play in a traditional Korean house. She teaches her little guests how to play the games. “Chilgyo Game” involves making a shape with 7 to 20 pieces, whereas “Gonu Game” is similar to the game of Chinese chess. "Mabangjin" is a type of IQ game that involves laying down a total of nine different numbers in three rows and columns so that the sum of the three numbers is identical when added horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. Many guests find these games interesting, and the owner of the guesthouse finds joy in teaching these games to as many families as possible. She recently took over another traditional Korean guesthouse called "Samrakheon" near the Jeonju Oriental Medicine Center. It's a stand-alone guesthouse for groups and families, and she uses the place to teach traditional games to more people.
