La puerta Dongdaemun fue originalmente llamada Heunginjimun, y es la antigua entrada oriental a la ciudad de Hanyang (Seúl).
Dongdaemun fue edificada por el rey Taejo in 1396, renovada por el rey Danjong en 1453, y su actual estructura fue hecha por el rey Gojong en 1869. Aparentemente, la gente comenzó a llamarla Heunginjimun desde los tiempos del rey Sejo (1455-1468). Pese a que la puerta es conocida en general con el nombre de Dongdaemun, mucha gente aún la sigue denominando Heunginjimun, con la intención de preservar su antiguo legado.
La característica más interesante de Dongdaemun es que tiene un ongseong, un muro externo especialmente construido con forma de media luna. Originalmente, el palacio real en Hanyang se había erigido sobre un terreno bajo, por lo que era difícil defenderlo de las invasiones. Por ello, hicieron levantar un muro para compensar dichas desventajas. Se puede observar que la puerta fue hecha teniendo en consideración la geografía del entorno. Las rocas de ongseong tienen diferentes colores, que fueron cambiando a través de las diversas obras de renovaciones que sufrió la puerta.
En el centro del muro reforzado de piedra se encuentra la puerta más pequeña Hongyemun. Sobre esta, se halla el piso intermedio compuesto de cinco secciones y el techo tiene el estilo llamado "de Ujingak". En los aleros del techo están las estatuas japsang, que se parecen a animales y se dice que espantan a los espíritus malignos. La estructura de Dongdaemun tiene una intrincada técnica de los detalles y hay una gran exaltación de la decoración, con lo que muestra muy bien el estilo de la arquitectura que había en los últimos tiempos del período Joseon.

The terrace situated on the first floor offers an open view of the surrounding area including roof tiles of hanok structures and alleyways in Seochon. 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. The guesthouse offers a total of four rooms – Jae Room, which is the most Korean-style room; Mi Room, which has a combined style of a Korean-style room and Western-style room; Nan Room, which is an ideal room for meditation with a beautiful paper window; and Ahn Room, which is equipped with a veranda and a pretty flowerbed. Every room has its separate charm with various comfortable bedding to provide a quiet and cozy bedroom for guests in the middle of the city. Furthermore, the guesthouse holds a pansori (epic chant) performance twice a year. The owner started learning how to sing pansori to promote the Korean culture and tradition to foreigners.
