Gyeongbokgung feels a bit different again. Gyeongbokgung is in a straight line, but this is Onggi. When kings liked the most, there is Changdeokgung. Changdeokgung is not a flat ground, but it was built along the mountainside. When you enter through the Dohwamun, turn right, pass the Geumcheon Bridge, pass the Jinseonmun, then turn left to enter Injeongjeon. Instead of the front, Sajeongdang unfolds to the side, so it is said to be more humanistic than solemn. That's the meaning that the architecture holds. Oh, that kind of arrangement fits perfectly with the emotions of us Koreans. Even when building Gyeongbokgung, they followed the Chinese rituals that were mentioned in the official documents, but after 10 years, only the basic principles of those rituals remained in the achievements.

Building a palace according to our nature, the most traditional and Korean-style palace is the palace. When it comes to Changdeokgung, during the Imjin War, Pyeongyang was burnt to the ground, so instead of rebuilding Gyeongbokgung, they built Changdeokgung. So, they restored it at that time, and it remains as it is now. Basically, it was built during the reign of King Gwanghae after the Imjin War. There were controversies and issues in between, but each time, they made improvements and restored it. In our play, my husband, who plays King Taejong, actually went through two rebellions, including the Prince's Rebellion, and even killed his own half-brother at Gyeongbokgung. There are various painful histories. In other words, Taejong wanted to build a new palace, which is why the palace remains as it is now. King Taejong did not abandon Gyeongbokgung as his secondary palace.

Leave it as it is. And the palace, Gungnak, exists as two palaces in Yangwon. When something happens, they stay on one side and come here when needed. In that sense, Gyeonghoeru of Gyeongbokgung was built, focusing more on the place where foreign envoys were received. They worked there and rested at Gangnyeongjeon. All these things were centered around Changdeokgung. It was all connected through the back gate. Recently, they wanted to change it. Before, it was all asphalt. Oh, it's recent. During the Japanese colonial era, it all changed. They covered the dirt so that cars could enter. Because Emperor Sunjong rode in a car. It was asphalt in the front, and it's a pity. Then, they completely restored the back gate. Changing and making it anew. That's the meaning of restoration. Locals and the people.

The area and the myth society as a whole make everything very closely and intimately [Music] which means that Gwanghwamun spreads the virtues of the monarch in all directions, making it a place where all the people are educated. When you come to the four gates, you can see the mountain peaks between the columns, like a landscape painting seen through a window on a mountain. It has a natural atmosphere [Music] [Music] Geoyeyo. This is Geumcheon Bridge, designed by a person named Park Geumcheon. There are animal patterns placed throughout, with lions and goblins. [Music] On the goblin railing, there is a guardian spirit lying down with its head like this. Why is it like this? It seems like a person who doesn't want to work and doesn't stand up straight, facing forward with their head like this.

Strictness has now turned its head to 6:05, even in this piece, the sense of humor is implemented very cutely. When you go to Changdeokgung Palace, the most regrettable thing is that the underground water doesn't flow. So, it's cool to visit the country when it rains. When the water flows, it looks beautiful on the rainy side. You must see it. During the rainy season, the water flows very actively, it looks so cool. Entering through the Injeongmun Gate, you have to go through the Injeongmun Gate. Oh, the sight of the Injeongmun Gate is really cool. Wow. This is a sentence of the Hwagwan flower. In 1907, Emperor Gojong sent Yi Jun to the Hague Peace Conference, arousing world opinion. As a result, Japan forced Emperor Gojong to abdicate.

He was thrown away, and immediately enthroned as a puppet emperor. It is said that Emperor Gojong was at Deoksugung Palace. Leaving Emperor Gojong there, Emperor Sunjong was brought here and enthroned. In the late 19th century, many foreign envoys came, so we had to keep our shoes on, that's why. Originally, stones were laid on the floor of Injeongjeon, but they were all changed to wooden floors. There are various theories about whether to change the wooden floor back to the old style or not. Among them, it remains as a trace of history, without repair, as Geunjeongjeon and a different wooden floor. So, if you go east from Injeongjeon, you can see Cheonggyeongwan Hall. That building is where political affairs were conducted. That house is the only one that is connected to Cheonggyeongwan Hall. Yes, the reason is that Gwanghaegun had a big dream, so it is the only house connected to the royal family, right next to the Sajikdan.

I tried to build a solid foundation here, so it's not originally built as a tile-roofed house from the beginning. It was a building that was abandoned when trying to build a new military facility, and then it was moved here and rebuilt with blue tiles like the ones used in traditional Korean pottery. This house was the first to be electrified in the Joseon Dynasty. It's very grand here. This place is called Sajeongdang. In 1917, there was a big controversy because of the assassination of Queen Myeongseong or the Righteous Army Incident. So, they burned down the entire building. Therefore, to restore this, it requires a lot of money and it's difficult to find the wood materials for these buildings. However, this is interesting. The Japanese people destroyed Gyeongbokgung Palace. They brought the materials from the demolished palace here to build this place. When you enter Sajeongdang, there is a canopy, and cars can drive in.

You saw it, right? It's amazing. When you enter by car with King Sunjong, a café is created there, so yes, it's a place that doesn't suit me. When you get off there, you can see a lobby like the current hotel lobby. They made it like that. It feels like a building that combines the past and the present. When tradition transitions to modernity, they keep the tradition and incorporate modern elements. That's what it is. It was like the King's bedroom in the royal court, a place to welcome dignitaries. Wow, it feels so luxurious. I haven't seen my wife, but it really feels like a reception room. The chandeliers are cool, and wow, the interior furniture is western-style. So, they are trying to make this place modern. Let's draw a wall symbolizing Geumsu Gangsan on both sides.

During the Japanese colonial period, Japanese people could still draw pictures. So, we decided to create a big project where our painters would draw pictures by our hands. At that time, there were two groups in the art world. In the 1920s, there was the Seohwa Research Society led by Haegang Kim Gyujin, the top figure of our traditional painting circle, and there was a Seohwa training center that taught students from the Seohwa Association. All the students from this training center were new artists in their twenties. Nevertheless, they were determined to draw Haegang Kim Gyujin's paintings. In the world, on our proud Geumgangsan Mountain, there are thousands of peaks with various forms that are now being named. They drew a thousand peaks, which is Haegang Kim Gyujin's painting. Also, the murals of Cheongseokjeong by the sea are very important. It seems like they fought layer by layer, tirelessly and persistently.

Above the main gate, there is a pavilion, and that is the main gate. Oh, this is the West Wing. A, on both sides, there are beautiful murals, so there is a very majestic and dignified atmosphere. [MUSIC] Now, moving on to Nakseonjae. [MUSIC] [MUSIC] Nakseonjae is where Heungseon Daewongun ordered to build a house for his son, which is different from other houses. Even though it is inside a window, it feels like a noble family's house. That's why he requested not to have Dancheong (traditional multicolored paintwork on wooden buildings) and the details of the window frames are very beautiful. Oh, it's always very neat in the front, but on the sides, there are gorgeous patterns added, which makes it very pretty. It's all different. The pattern on the window frames, this was a new style of window at that time. Originally, we didn't have circles, but there were a lot of circles in China. Many scholars from China came and went back then, and with the influence of the Qing Dynasty's new civilization, this kind of window frame was introduced from ceramics.

At that time, as for the reason why modernism comes in like this, if you go to the Won, Nakseonjae, and Yeodam, you will see that the windows are different from the windows in other houses. This is very unique, so when you look at it from the front, it's different, and when you go sideways, the perspective keeps changing. Oh, there is a stone next to the stairs, shaped like this. What is this? It's a stepping stone, which is what you step on when you come down from the kiln. Stepping down with your foot, they call it a stepping stone. If you look at the kitchen, there are these cracks like broken ice intentionally made to prevent a fire. So, with the concept of preventing fires, it means to be careful, not to cause a fire. In the kitchen, there are abstract patterns like broken ice to prevent fires. And there was a plaque in the Nakseonjae saying Guilty, they say, but this is...

When you translate the meaning, you leave out the tricks and go back to naturalness, leave out the fake and go back to control, leave out the wealth and go back to the people, and leave out the inner garment and go back to self-respect. When Confucius stayed in Ju, when he stayed in Ju and learned, it meant to deeply reflect on the meaning of what is left. It's amazing. However, the characters are very powerful and unique. Kim Jeong, a paper master, was a big fan of Confucius, and he said to Seo-ah Han, who was practicing calligraphy, to come in with his work to appreciate it together. So Seo-ah Han went and had a contest with Heonjong, and the story they did together is recorded in the Seochi Silrok. When you enter Nakseonjae, it's guilty.

There was a sign saying that in front of the Injeongjeon, there are Turu, Sajeongjeon, Cheonggiwa, and Jip, and then there is the Sajeongdang, Daejajeon, Gyeonggak, and Nakseonjae. After crossing that mountain, it becomes a garden that supports Changdeokgung, right? Oh, it's so beautiful. It's so pretty. Because of this garden, Changdeokgung becomes a valuable palace. When visiting the palace, the book I always carry is Professor Park Sang-jin's book on our country's palaces. Professor Park Jin painted the palaces. Among them, the tree and water plant that was very touching, the explanation there says it's a tree of water plants that makes the water clear. In reality, if you break a young branch and put it in clear water, the water turns blue. Although it has a beautiful name, the most commonly used one in the past was Jangmu.

I write. Ah, it was definitely used in agriculture, and in modern society, it is used for baseball bats, golf clubs, and rackets. That's the explanation. So suddenly, when I water the tree, it seems to stick to me and become my friend. So, I want the tree to love me back. While planting a pine tree, I wondered what to do next after planting a pine tree. Then, I was told to plant a lot of pine trees, so I planted many pine trees, and there was a very dense fragrant tree, a 600-year-old fragrant tree. It was truly magnificent. During the reign of King Sejong, I wanted to sponsor it, but if I wanted to sponsor it, there needed to be water. But there was no stream here, so in the end, I found a well at the end. Since there was a spring, I could supply water, so I built a sponsorship here.
