旧物与艺术的邂逅，文化散步 | 旅行路线 | K-Travel Mate

Kim Hain Art Hall was opened in October 2008 by novelist Kim Hain, author of "Gukhwakkot Hyanggi," the original work of the drama "Autumn in My Heart," located in Munam 1-ri, Jukwang-myeon, Goseong-gun. The hall is an accommodation and experience space created by Kim Hain and ceramic artist Jeong Jaenam. It faces the sea in front of Jajakdo, Goseong, just 10 minutes from Sokcho, allowing visitors to enjoy the dazzlingly clear and blue sea right outside.

The Eomyeonggi Old House located in Goseong-gun, Gangwon-teukbyeoljachi-do, was purchased in the 1860s by the current owner Eomyeonggi’s great-grandfather Eomyongsu. The house originally settled on this site about 400 years ago but was burned down in a fire. It was restored to its former appearance around 1750 (26th year of King Yeongjo) by Eotaejun. Situated on a sloping hillside, the house occupies a wide plot with an L-shaped main building. To the left is a mill, to the right is a haengnangchae (auxiliary quarters), and at the back is a barn. The main building contains both the anchae (inner quarters) and sarangchae (men’s quarters) in one structure. It measures four rooms wide and three rooms deep with a three-row stacked structure. On the left side of the building is a large kitchen and cowshed; the center houses the anbang (main room), woodanbang (opposite room), and daecheong (main hall); and on the right are three sarangbang (men’s rooms) arranged vertically. The kitchen and cowshed protruding forward is a typical floor plan often seen in Goseong-gun. A roof is installed between the kitchen and cowshed, and behind them is a fixed grain storage cupboard (dwijoo) attached for storing grain. The sarangbang at the front serves as the owner's daily living space, while the two sarangbang behind are for receiving guests. A notable feature of this house is the 'deogeumae,' a space appearing between the roof and ceiling visible in the anbang, woodanbang, and middle room. It serves as storage when needed and also blocks cold air descending from the roof.

Wangkok Village is located about 1.5 km inland from the coast and is surrounded by five hills shaped like peaks about 200m above sea level and the lagoon Songjiho (circumference 4km, area 200,000 pyeong), forming a basin in the shape of a 'gol' isolated from the outside. To the east of the village is Golmusang, to the southeast Songjiho, to the south Hogunsan and Jegoksan, to the west Jinbangsan, and to the north Oeumsan. Oeumsan, located north of the village, extends southwest through the village along the Wanggokcheon stream, forming a settlement with deep longitudinal shape. Houses are naturally arranged along the village road that follows the stream in the village center, characterized by relatively wide vegetable gardens between houses without separate fences, separating the houses by the garden boundaries. The house structure of Wangkok Village includes an anbang (main room), dojangg (storage room), sarangbang (men’s quarters), maru (wooden floor room), and kitchen all in one building, with the kitchen attached to a livestock pen in a combined house structure. The front yard, directly connected to the village road, serves as a communal work space open to outsiders, while the backyard, surrounded by relatively high walls, is a private space for women and not open to others. Only the roof of the backyard is visible, reflecting a design considerate of women's activity space. The traditional houses of Wangkok Village, full of history and tradition, also offer lodging experiences. One can escape modern urban life and spend quiet, relaxed time in a place where time seems to have stopped, living just as 200 years ago.
