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.

Puerta de la Independencia (Dongnimmun) (독립문)

Tongil-ro 251, Seodaemun-gu, Seúl.

Dongnimmun se halla en un lugar conocido originalmente como Yeongeun, en donde otrora se trataba a los enviados oficiales. Cuando un enviado chino hacía una visita, el rey salía a través de esta puerta para recibirle. Fue construida en 1897, para anunciar la independencia de China, quien había influido en Corea durante mucho tiempo, y de Japón y Rusia, quienes acechaban al país.

Las expensas de la construcción fueron recaudadas como contribución por los ciudadanos coreanos. Los vestigios del pasado todavía permanecen en Dongnimmun. Los dos pilares enfrente de Dongnimmun son los restos de Yeongeunmun.

Si comparamos Dongnimmun, puede evocarnos al Arco del Triunfo de Francia, ya que este último se tomó como modelo para su construcción. Dongnimmun fue edificada con un muro de granito, y hay un pasillo con una altura de 14,28 metros. En lo alto está escrito “Dongnimmun” en coreano, con la bandera nacional dibujada a cada lado. En el lado interior izquierdo hay escaleras de piedra que conducen al ático. La flor nacional, mugunghwa, está plantada alrededor de Dongnimmun. Ahora está rodeada por carreteras y es llamativa a la vista cuando se pasa por allí.
