대한민국 information The English name is Republic of Korea. It extends 1,000 km to the south and borders China and Russia to the north. The total area of North and South Korea is similar to that of the United Kingdom or Romania, and South Korea is slightly larger than Hungary or Portugal and slightly smaller than Bulgaria. 70% of the entire country is mountainous, with a gentle slope toward the West Sea and a steep slope toward the East Sea. There are also many rivers compared to the area of the country. The climate has four distinct seasons, with long hot and humid summers and cold and dry winters, and relatively short refreshing and clear spring and fall days. The temperature drops to -15℃ in winter and rises to 34℃ in summer. The traditional religions of Korea are Shamanism, Buddhism, and Confucianism, and these have had a great influence on the cultural development, ideology, and behavior of past countries. In addition, the population of believers in the indigenous religion Cheondogyo, as well as foreign religions such as Christianity (Protestantism) and Catholicism, has been rapidly increasing since the modern era. The residents are Korean and ethnically Mongolian, and have existed as a single ethnic group since the Gojoseon period. After Gojoseon, our country continued through the Three Kingdoms period in ancient times, the North-South States period, the Goryeo period in the Middle Ages, and the Joseon period in the early modern times, but in 1910, our country lost its sovereignty for the first time in history due to Japanese colonial rule and was placed under colonial rule. Our people, who had been fighting for independence for a long time, finally achieved liberation when Japan was defeated in World War II. However, along with liberation, the armies of the victorious nations, the United States and the Soviet Union, entered the South and the North of the 38th parallel and implemented military administration, so although we were liberated from Japanese colonial rule, we were unable to achieve independence and instead ended up in a state of division between the South and the North. However, the Korean people’s desire for independence was reflected in the United Nations, and in 1947, the 2nd UN General Assembly proposed a simultaneous general election in both South and North Korea under the supervision of the UN Korean Supervisory Commission, but North Korea strongly opposed it. As a result, a general election was held only in South Korea on May 10, 1948, and the Constitutional Assembly was established on May 31. The Constitutional Assembly enacted and promulgated the “Constitution of the Republic of Korea” on July 17 (since the 9th amendment, the preamble to the Constitution of the Republic of Korea has stated that it “succeeds the legal tradition of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea”) and elected Syngman Rhee as the first president on the 20th of that month. Thus, the Republic of Korea declared its establishment domestically and internationally on August 15, 1948, and began as a member of the liberal democratic nation, and has continued to this day. The United Nations recognized the government of the Republic of Korea established in this way as the “only legitimate government on the Korean Peninsula.” When the Republic of Korea established its government, it defined its territory as the Korean Peninsula and its adjacent islands, and declared that the sovereignty of the Republic of Korea would govern the entire Korean Peninsula. However, the actual administrative area as a single political community was limited to the area south of the 38th parallel north latitude, and after the armistice in 1953, it was changed to the area south of the Military Demarcation Line. The current administrative area bordering the Military Demarcation Line is 99,720㎢, which is approximately 45% of the total area of the Korean Peninsula (222,58㎢). The capital of the Republic of Korea is Seoul, and administratively, it is divided into Seoul, 1 special autonomous city, 6 metropolitan cities, 2 special autonomous provinces, and 7 provinces. The total population was 41,975,000 in 1988, but as of 2015, it is 50,617,045, and the population density was 423 people/㎢ in 1988, but as of 2010, it is 485 people/㎢. The national language of the Republic of Korea is Korean, and the writing system is based on Hangul, but Chinese characters are used only when absolutely necessary. The currency is the won (won), the national flag is the Taegeukgi (太極旗), the national anthem is the Aegukga, and the national flower is the Mugunghwa (馬花).
2. Seoul information 2 'Seoul' is a pure Korean word that originally refers to 'the capital of a country', or 'the national capital'.[41] If written in English, it would be 'Capital City'. Seoul Metropolitan City (Seoul Metropolitan City, English: Seoul Metropolitan City) is the capital of South Korea and serves as a cultural, humanities, political, and economic center, and serves as the center of the metropolitan area that includes Gyeonggi-do and Incheon Metropolitan City. It is the only city designated as a special city in South Korea and serves as the main city (first city). The language that led the notation of Seoul is French. It is pronounced as seoul in French phonetic notation. The population of Seoul Metropolitan City is 9,335,734 people. When comparing the area with foreign cities, it is similar to Singapore. Singapore is 712㎢, and Seoul is 605㎢. The average price of apartments in Seoul is nearly 5 times more expensive than in the provinces. According to Real Estate R114, as of the 7th, the average sale price of apartments in Seoul was 1.2949 billion won, and the 5 metropolitan cities were 441.35 million won. The average price of apartments in other provinces is 265.57 million won. Seoul has a continental climate with dry and cold winters, and typhoons cause a lot of rainfall from June to August. In 1392, King Yi Seong-gye of Joseon Dynasty built Hanyang, the current Seoul, based on the wisdom of geomancy of Master Muhak. It is Seoul that was built over the course of three kings of Joseon Dynasty. Lee Bang-won threw a coin at Jongmyo Shrine and said that Hanyang, or current Seoul, was auspicious. In the new capital, Hanseong, Jeongmyo and Sajikdan were built in the east and west, respectively, centered around Gyeongbokgung Palace. It is said that Jongmyo was moved into the castle, and it is similar to the Forbidden City in China. King Sejong the Great of Joseon created Hangul with his subjects. Hangul is not written by arranging individual letters in a straight line, but by creating blocks of syllables consisting of initial consonant (consonant) - medial vowel (vowel) - final consonant (consonant) and writing them together. The writing together is generally accepted as a writing method that corresponds 1:1 to the concept of syllables in Korean. Due to the writing together, Hangul has elements of phonemic characters and syllabic characters at the same time. The writing together is one factor that foreigners find difficult when learning Hangul. This is because learning the letters does not end with learning them, but learning how to write the letters together and pronounce them as syllables is the only way to say that you have learned the basics of Hangul. The Republic of Korea has a national character that values geomancy. The people of South Korea still consider geomancy very important in their daily lives and like the terrain of Baesanimsu. Since ancient times, it has been said that using the graves of ancestors well is the path to success. Geomancy refers to observing the topography of mountains and trees to determine whether a house site or grave site is good or bad. In geomancy, a good site refers to the terrain of Baesanimsu. The meaning of Baesanimsu is to have a mountain behind you and face the water in front. It is a symbol of royal authority and has been written down in history as the most prosperous city in South Korea. Seoul, the capital of South Korea, is located in the center of the country to achieve balanced development of the entire country, and Hanyang is surrounded by Bukaksan (Myeonaksan, Baekaksan) to the north, Inwangsan to the west, Namsan to the south, and Naksan to the east. In fact, General Douglas MacArthur, looking at Seoul, which was completely devastated after the Korean War, made a pessimistic prediction, saying, "It will take more than 100 years for this country (South Korea) to rebuild." However, the people of South Korea worked hard and succeeded in rebuilding South Korea, which had been one of the poorest countries, into a completely developed country, creating the Miracle on the Han River, and even successfully hosting the 1988 Seoul Olympics, completely defying his prediction. Furthermore, starting in the late 1990s, international organizations began to recognize South Korea as a developed country, which became even more meaningful. President Park Chung-hee's , and concentrated investment in rural development, which was significantly behind urban areas, led to per-household income surpassing urban areas in the late 1970s. Today, many developing countries come to learn from this every year, and the UN has designated it as part of its African poverty eradication program. Seoul is a metropolis where many talented people gather in Korea, and there is a strong argument that if you want to become powerful and rich, you have to live in Seoul. Gangnam in Korea is also a place where the rich live and where the educational craze is hot. In 1999, the word 'Hallyu', referring to the influence of Korean popular culture, was first used in Chinese media. Since then, the word 'Hallyu' has become a proper noun referring to Korean popular culture. A Seoul tour can be a special experience for many people. Seoul's attractive scenery and culture shine even more when you spend it with friends of various nationalities. These special moments become even more precious as people from different backgrounds come together to create a single story. As you experience both Seoul's historical sites and modern charms, the bond with new friends deepens over time. With the "Seoul Tour", which is a geomantically good place, we hope that you will receive the living and breathing culture and strong energy of beautiful Korea and become eternally healthy, successful, and rich. Thank you very much
경복궁 information Gyeongbokgung Palace is the first royal palace of the Joseon Dynasty. It is located against Bukaksan Mountain to the north, and in front of the main gate, Gwanghwamun, is the wide Yukjo Street (now Sejong-ro), which is also the center of the urban planning of Hanyang (Seoul), the royal capital. It was founded in 1395 by King Taejo Yi Seong-gye, burned down in 1592 during the Imjin War, and rebuilt in 1867 during the reign of King Gojong. The rebuilt Gyeongbokgung Palace, led by Heungseon Daewongun, was a magnificent sight with over 500 buildings densely packed like a maze. Inside the palace, there were administrative facilities for the king and officials, living spaces for the royal family, and a backyard for rest. It is also a place where many smaller palaces are intricately gathered within the palace, such as the queen's central palace, the crown prince's east palace, and Geoncheonggung Palace built by King Gojong. However, during the Japanese colonial period, most of the buildings were demolished, leaving only a few central buildings, such as Geunjeongjeon, and the Joseon Government-General Building was built to obscure the palace itself. Fortunately, a full-scale restoration project was launched in 1990, demolishing the Government-General Building and restoring the Heungryemun area, and the appearance of the king and queen's bedroom, Donggung Palace, Geoncheonggung Palace, and Taewonjeon Hall is being restored. The central part connecting Gwanghwamun - Heungryemun - Geunjeongmun - Geunjeongjeon - Sajeongjeon - Gangnyeongjeon - Gyotaejeon is the core space of the palace, and was built symmetrically according to geometric order. However, the buildings excluding the central part are arranged asymmetrically, creating the beauty of both change and unity. Let's experience the essence of the noble and dignified royal culture at Gyeongbokgung Palace, the center of the capital city of Seoul and the first palace of Joseon. Name of Gyeongbokgung Palace: Gyeongbokgung Palace was completed three years after the Joseon Dynasty was established. A few days after its completion, Jeong Do-jeon, a founding father of the country, named the palace Gyeongbokgung Palace and its major buildings, including Gangnyeongjeon Hall, Gyotaejeon Hall, Yeonsaengjeon Hall, Gyeongseongjeon Hall, Sajeongjeon Hall, and Geunjeongjeon Hall, according to the order of King Taejo. The name Gyeongbokgung Palace carries the meaning that “the new dynasty will enjoy great blessings and prosperity.”

인사동 추가 정보 2. Insa-dong Extra information The Insa-dong Tour is a time to walk from Buk-Insa-dong to Nam-Insa-dong, and to see and feel Korean culture while laughing and sympathizing with each other, and to arouse some latent emotions, and to become a time of Fleeing. A short walk around Insa-dong may not be able to arouse poetic emotions, but I hope that the tour will create an atmosphere where you will encounter something new and impressive through your perspective and new perspective. There is a story about life related to Insa-dong. I recommend poems by poet Kim Young-rang and poet Cheon Sang-byeong. Sunbeams whispering to the stone wall -Kim Young-rang- Like sunbeams whispering to the stone wall Like a spring smiling below grass On the lovely spring path silently My heart want to look up the sky today long Like the shyness emerging on cheeks of a bride Like the wave drenching lightly on poem's heart Yam silk sky flowing thin soft emerald I would love to look up Return to Heaven Cheon sang byeong I shall return to the heaven high, No sooner touches dawn's light than fades, Hand in hand with dew's ephemeral fate. I shall return to the eternal blue, With evening's glow, only you and me, Upon the hill, where clouds do wave. I shall return to the sky above, On the last day this secular journey is done, And there, I'll say, "How beautiful life was." Cheon Sang-byeong was a South Korean poet.
Kwangjang market: It is the first permanent market in Korea, established in 1905. Originally, Gwangjang Market was planned to be built by covering the area between Gwanggyo (wide bridge) and Janggyo (long bridge), so it was named Gwangjang Market, meaning “wide and long,” after the first letters of the bridge names. However, when it was moved to Baeogae, the Korean pronunciation of the previous name was kept, but the meaning of “widely gathering and preserving” was newly added, and it became the current Gwangjang (廣藏) Market. Now, more than 100 years later, it has become a comprehensive market boasting a considerable transaction volume. Also, the busiest place in Gwangjang Market is the food market formed on the street where Dongmun, Buk 2 Gate, and Nam 1 Gate meet. The food market of Gwangjang Market attracts all ages, from students, middle-aged people, and the elderly. It is currently designated as a world tourist course, and is famous as a transit point for many foreign tourists traveling to Korea.
Changgyeonggung palace : Changgyeonggung Palace is the third palace built during the Joseon Dynasty, following Gyeongbokgung Palace and Changdeokgung Palace. Since the early days of the Joseon Dynasty, the two-palace system was in place, with Gyeongbokgung Palace as the main palace and Changdeokgung Palace as the auxiliary palace. However, the kings of the past preferred to reside in Changdeokgung Palace over Gyeongbokgung Palace, and as the royal family grew, the living space in Changdeokgung Palace gradually became cramped. Accordingly, King Seongjong built Changgyeonggung Palace next to Changdeokgung Palace so that the three queens of the royal family, including Queen Jeonghui, wife of King Sejo, Queen Ansun, wife of King Yejong, and Queen Sohye, wife of King Deokjong, could live comfortably. The name at the time was Suganggung Palace, meaning longevity and peace.

Imjingak information A train stopped at the end of the Gyeongui Line in Paju, Gyeonggi Province. “The iron horse that wants to run but cannot” has been rusting for over 70 years, silently testifying to the pain of division and the tragedy of the nation. Near Imjingak, at the end of the Gyeongui Line, there is a rusted train under the words “The iron horse wants to run.” This train, which has remained out of service since the Korean War, is a symbol of division and vividly brings back the forgotten traces of the war. Inside, the rooms and equipment that evoke the atmosphere of the time remain intact, allowing visitors to travel back in time. This place, which borders the DMZ, is home to the US military base “Camp Greaves,” where UN forces were stationed in the past. After the armistice agreement in 1953, this place served as a headquarters for UN forces to carry out rotational missions and support. Now, it has been transformed into a division experience space operated by the Gyeonggi Tourism Organization to welcome visitors. The commanding officer’s office and communications room have been recreated in their original form, and the ammunition depot remains in a structure that can be used as a bunker in case of an emergency. The US military barracks and unit markings in the shape of military numbers left here and there vividly convey the reality of war. The traces of soldiers from allied countries who rushed to help from around the world at the time prove the solidarity and humanity that blossomed on the ruins. At the Mangbaedan installed in Imjingak, the heartbreaking stories of displaced people who left their hometown are recalled. In this place where we calmly face the reality of “wanting to go but not being able to,” the eyes looking at the North Korean mountain range just a few hundred meters away are still warm. It has been a long time since we heard anything from the 100,000 abducted compatriots, but the wait of their families is not over. The northern ridge stretching out beyond the Dokgae Bridge stimulates the desire for unification. Symbolic art works to remember this pain are also displayed here and there. The installation expressing the rare plant, anemone, through upcycling symbolizes life and peace and tells another story of the DMZ. Meanwhile, the Peace Nuri Campground near Camp Greaves is well-maintained and welcomes visitors. The comfortable caravan accommodations serve as a comfortable resting place for families visiting the site of division, and it is a unique experience where the past and present coexist. The nearby Peace Nuri Plaza is a popular tourist attraction with various cultural events and a resting place. Recently, the ‘Peace Gondola’ departing from Imjingak and flying toward the DMZ opened, and families riding the gondola look out the window at the North Korean land and imagine the painful past of the severed homeland and the future of reconciliation together. Quoting the Gyeonggi Tourism Organization, he said, "We hope that Camp Greaves and the DMZ area will become a place of education that recalls the painful past that is being forgotten and conveys the value of peace to future generations." This is not just an old battlefield or a historical site. It is a 'living site of division' filled with the tears and wishes of countless people, and at the same time, a place to strengthen the will for peace.
