Es un patrimonio cultural, designado Sitio Histórico, ubicado en Unni-dong, Jongno-gu. Antigüamente no era un palacio como lo es el de Gyeongbokgung, sino que se trataba de la residencia de los miembros de la Familia Real, pero con el paso del tiempo se lo ha considerado como un palacio. La denominación en coreano del palacio Gyeongbokgung sería “Gunggwol”. El término “Gung” hace referencia al espacio de residencia, mientras que la palabra “Gwol” se refiere al espacio político. Esto significa que en Gyeongbokgung se llevaba a cabo la vida cotidiana y política de la Corte Real; pero en Unhyeongung residía la Familia Real de Heungseon Daewongun, regente y padre del rey Gojong. Cabe señalar que hacia finales de la época Joseon, en esta residencia real se han originado la mayoría de los sucesos históricos, políticas revolucionarias, política de aislamiento, etc., todo lo cual resalta su simbolismo histórico.
La construcción para ampliar el palacio Unhyeongung comenzó a un mes de que Gojong asumiera el trono, a petición de la madre del Rey. En un principio, se encontraba localizado en el área intermedia entre los palacios Changdeokgung y Gyeongbokgung, pero a medida que se fue extendiendo, con una cantidad de edificaciones anexas, ha abarcado la zona actual que corresponde a la Universidad femenina de Duksung, el antiguo edificio de la emisora TBC, el Centro Cultural Japonés, la Escuela primaria Gyodong y el edificio de la compañía Samwhan.
El edificio principal de Unhyeongung es la sala Noandang, construida en septiembre de 1864. Entre otras construcciones famosas se destacan Norakdang, Irodang, y las cuatro puertas de acceso al palacio, aunque en la actualidad ha quedado una sola puerta. Norakdang, siendo la edificación central del palacio, fue el escenario de los grandes festivos familiares, y Noandang fue el despacho de Daewongun, la construcción más significativa en la vida de este hombre, ya que fue el lugar en donde pasó los momentos más importantes de su vida y donde falleció. Presenta un estilo arquitectónico tradicional coreano, con tejado, cuyos extremos estaban decorados elegantemente. Irodang, situado al lado Norakdang, tiene la forma de un cuadrado, y en su interior se encuentra un hermoso jardín. Este lugar ha recibido la atención y el cuidado solo durante el período de regencia de Heungseon Daewongun, ya que luego de su muerte, fue difícil el mantenimiento. La residencia ha tomado la apariencia actual a partir de noviembre de 1993, que es cuando el gobierno de Seúl tomó posesión del establecimiento, y por lo cual, ejecutó las obras de remodelación y restauración.
