Inauguré en 1992 sous le nom du Musée royal, l’actuel Musée national du palais de Corée expose des reliques du royaume de Joseon (1392-1910). Près de 20.000 reliques royales des palais Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung, et Changgyeonggung ainsi que celles du sanctuaire de Jongmyo y sont présentées.
1. Symboles et documents royaux (Royal Symbols and Records) - La dynastie Joseon soutenant les idéaux confucianistes, le roi était donc considéré comme le souverain absolu, et le couple royal faisait figure, avec la reine, de parents de tout le peuple. Pour rehausser son autorité, la dynastie a fait fabriquer divers symboles royaux.
2. Rites ancestraux (Ancestral Rites) - Un rite ancestral se tenait dans un sanctuaire abritant les tablettes des rois et des reines de la dynastie Joseon. Ce rite était non seulement une cérémonie de culte de la famille royale mais aussi une fête de musique et de danse célébrée pour souhaiter le salut et la prospérité éternelle du pays.
3. Architecture du palais (Palace Architecture) – Le palais était une demeure pour le roi et sa famille, et le centre de politique et d’administration, où le roi gouvernait le pays. Le centre du palais de la dynastie Joseon, suivant les plans d’architecture traditionnelle, comprenait Jeongjeon, le hall principal comme centre des événements de l’Etat et de discussions politiques, et Pyeonjeon, l’office du gouvernement.
4. Sciences de Joseon (Joseon Sciences) – Durant sa première période, la dynastie Joseon oeuvrait à établir la légitimité de sa fondation et à enrichir le pays. Afin de réaliser ces idéaux, la dynastie promouvait comme jamais auparavant des domaines tels que les sciences ou la médecine et développait diverses armes pour la défense nationale.
5. Vie de la famille royale (Royal Life) - Le roi et la reine étaient les figures symboliques de la dynastie Joseon, mais ils étaient également comme le peuple ordinaire dans leur vie privée au palais. Le palais était divisé en différentes sections : office du roi, demeure pour la reine, bureau du prince héritier. Chaque espace contenait des meubles appropriés, qui étaient fabriqués avec des matériaux de haute qualité selon de stricts critères pour la famille royale.

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.
