Hyundai Kalguksu is a kalguksu (handmade knife-cut noodles) restaurant that has been in the family for two generations (1982). The restaurant is extremely popular among people working at nearby businesses, thanks to the rich flavor of the broth. Anchovies, dried pollack heads, and kelp are simmered for many hours, and then, other ingredients are added: soft noodles and various vegetables including pumpkin, onion, and green onions. The restaurant is famous for the exquisite taste of its kalguksu, as well as for its large servings. Just one bowl is enough to satisfy a starving man, but if you are still hungry, don’t hesitate to ask for more rice or noodles for free. Another unforgettable specialty here is kimchi.

La ceremonia de cambio de guardia empezó en el año 1996 con la ayuda de los historiadores más famosos y renombre. Se realiza en la puerta Daehanmun del palacio Deoksugung, y es un excelente evento para apreciar la cultura real de la época de la dinastía Joseon. El evento se realiza 2 veces al día y muestra al público cómo los guardias cierran y abren la puerta siguiendo movimientos estrictos y que requieren mucha fuerza. El cambio de guardia se realiza para todo el público de forma gratuita. La ceremonia comienza con la llegada de los guardias de reemplazo, y después intercambian códigos verbalmente para verificar si son sus aliados. Luego siguen unos ritos que duran 7 y 8 minutos respectivamente, y la ceremonia finaliza con una ronda de patrullaje. Es interesante ver cómo los 18 soldados tocan enérgicamente los tambores. En Corea no hay muchos lugares que recreen ceremonias de la corte real, por lo que el Cambio de Guardia del Palacio Deoksugung es un evento al que vale la pena asistir. Los coloridos trajes de los guardias son muy llamativos y permiten sacar buenas fotos. No olvide visitar también el palacio después de observar la ceremonia.
