Oryuheon House, located near Imhaho Lake in Andong, Gyeongsangbuk-do, offers a chance to stay in a historic house from the Joseon period. The house, also known as Mogwa House, was built by Kim Won-jung, the third son of Sukjong-era rector of the National Academy Kim Bang-geol, when he formed a family of his own in 1678. It was designated as the National Folk Cultural Heritage No. 184. The door’s wooden frame and the open floor space exemplify the beauty of the literati house of the Joseon period, while the sarangchae (men’s quarters) and daemunchae (gate quarters) showcase the sophisticated architecture of the era. Anchae (women’s quarters) retains its original appearance, while the sarangchae was rebuilt in 1920. The construction of the Imha Dam in 1990 resulted in the house’s relocation to its present location. The owner of the house resides in anchae and sarangchae. Guests have access to a space that includes a 2-kan room, which can accommodate up to 4, an open floor space, and a bathroom. Cooking is prohibited in the house, but guests can make use of a grill located on a small yard reserved for the guests. Korean-style breakfast, including menus like chicken porridge or lotus leaf rice, are offered free of charge in the morning. Nearby sights include the water sports activities in Imhaho Lake, Manhyujeong Pavilion, Hahoe Village, and Dosanseowon Confucian Academy.

Dans ce site se trouvent des biens culturels nationaux tels que Takcheongjeong et Hujodang (voir plus bas).

Le site inclut le musée Sungwongak où sont exposés de précieux documents rédigés par les membres connus de cette famille ainsi que les actes d'état civil et divers titres de possessions de terres et d'esclaves. Parmi eux ont été déclarées "trésor" par l’Etat coréen 7 catégories de documents anciens répartis dans 429 pièces différentes et 13 catégories de livres des records englobant 61 volumes.

Takcheongjeong
C’est un pavillon annexé à la maison principale de la branche Yean de la famille Kim de Gwangsan. La maison a été construite en 1541. Pour un bâtiment de ce genre, il est plutôt majestueux et imposant, ce qui le fait considérer comme un important bien culturel. La plaque portant le nom du bâtiment a été placée sous le toit et au-dessus de la porte de l’immeuble. Elle a été écrite par Han Ho, un des trois grands calligraphes de la dynastie Joseon.

Hujodang
C’est une résidence secondaire appelée Byeoldang. Elle est annexée à la maison principale de la branche Yean de la famille Kim de Gwangsan. L’année de sa construction est ignorée, mais on sait qu'elle a été élevée par Kim Bu-Pil (1516~1577).
Immeuble séparé de la maison principale, un Byeoldang se divise en deux zones : Byeoldang extérieur et Byeoldang intérieur.
La première était utilisée pour le repos et la méditation des hommes de la maison, alors que la seconde était destinée aux grand-mères ou aux filles approchant l’âge de se marier.
Hujodang est un Byeoldang extérieur.

Jeongjae Head House / 정재종택

Boasting more than 300 years of tradition, Jeongjae Traditional House is the head house of Ryu Chi-myeong (pen-name: Jeongjae), who inherited the study of Togye Yi Hwang (1501-1570), one of the two most prominent Korean Confucian scholars of Joseon. The old house features the characteristic construction elements of a Joseon hanok, including the stylobate, wooden pillars, toenmaru (the narrow wooden porch running along the outside of the building), tiled roof, and other structures, and commands an open view of Imha Lake. The house was originally built by Ryu Gwan-hyeon, the great-great-grandfather of Ryu Chi-myeong, in 1735 (the 11th year of the reign of King Yeongjo of Joseon) in the village of Handeul in Imdong-myeon, Andong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do, but it was relocated to the foot of Guamsan Mountain in 1987 when Imha Dam was built and the surrounding area was submerged as a result. The house consists of the daemunchae (gate building), jeongchim (a ‘ㅁ’-shaped house with a tiled roof), haengnangchae (servants’ quarters), a shrine, and a pavilion. The sarangchae (men’s quarters) is clearly visible, while the anchae (women’s quarters) is concealed within the house. The sarangchae has a sarangmaru (wooden floor), a large sarangbang room, a small sarangbang room, and there is a small maru between the two rooms. The buildings of the sarangchae and anchae are clearly divided into segregated spaces for men and women according to Confucian tradition. The anchae has a daecheongmaru (large wooden floor) in the middle; a main room, kitchen, and toilet on the right; and a numaru (upper floor) and sangbang (upper room) on the left. The small side door of the main gate links to the door by which to enter the anchae, which has a small vegetable garden. Manujeong Pavilion (Gyeongsangbuk-do Cultural Heritage Material No. 37) is a half-hipped roof building with single-layered eaves located on the left side of the house outside the main gate. It is the place where Ryu Chi-myeong used to teach his students, and consists of a large maru and a guest room. The pavilion is also surrounded by the beautiful scenery of Imha Lake, mountains, and chestnut trees. Jeongjae Traditional House provides two special experience programs: Making Songhwaju, which is the Ryu family’s home-brewed liquor (15 to 18 degrees) made with rice, glutinous rice, yeast, pine needles, and chrysanthemums, led by the owner’s wife (Intangible Cultural Asset No. 20); and Making Tarak, which is a fermented milk drink that has been made by the Ryu’s family for some 500 years. As the recipe for making Tarak is relatively simple, and uses yeast that is usually used to make raw rice wine like Makgeolli, people can easily make it at home. The house also runs a traditional music program designed to show participants how to play the gayageum (Korean zither with twelve strings) and sing Korean folk songs, and stages small concerts.

'Suaedang Traditional House was built by Ryu Jin-geol, also known by his pen-name of Suae, in 1939. This hanok-style house consists of three buildings that measure 29-kan (a traditional measurement that corresponds to the space between two columns) in total. The main room, or jeongchim (7-kan at front and 2-kan at sides), has a half-hipped roof, and forms a‘ㄱ’-shape with the storeroom (10-kan at front), which also has a half-hipped roof. Originally located at 612 Sugok-dong, Andong-si, the house was relocated from a slight slope to a flat piece of land due to the construction of Imha Dam in 1987. Consequently, the Jeongchim was rebuilt at a lower level than before. The Suaedang was renovated by modernizing the old-style facilities including the kitchen, toilets, and washroom without changing their external features, while the rooms and daecheongmaru (main floored room) were decorated with red clay and natural paint. Suaedang, with its beautiful panoramic view of the lake, was designated as Gyeongsangbuk-do Cultural Property No. 56.

Byeongsan Seowon est une école fondée par des savants confucianistes coréens en hommage à Yu Seong-Ryong (1542-1607), célèbre érudit qui jouissait d’une très haute réputation pour sa vertu et ses savoirs. Actuellement, cet établissement abrite sa plaque commémorative.

En 1863, le roi de la dynastie Joseon a doté cet établissement d’une autorité en tant que Saek Seowon, école exempte de toute taxe et de tout labeur en lui fournissant une plaque écrite par le roi, des livres, un terrain et des esclaves.

En 1868, un décret de Heungseon Daewongun (1820-1898, politicien de la famille royale de la dynastie Joseon) a aboli les écoles confucéennes ; Byeongsan Seowon est un des 47 établissements de ce type dans toute la Corée du Sud, et un des deux dans la ville d’Andong, à avoir pu y échapper.

Située devant le fleuve Nakdong et entourée par la montagne Byeonsan comme d’un paravent, cette école offre un très joli paysage.
