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.

Seúl está rodeada de montañas, principalmente Bugaksan, Namsan, Naksan e Inwangsan. Bugaksan, la montaña situada al norte de Seúl, es la mayor de estas, y es un vástago del monte Bukhansan. También es conocida como Baekaksan.
La Fortaleza de Seúl recorre la sierra y la puerta Changuimun (también llamada Jahamun), una de las cuatro pequeñas puertas que rodeaban el castillo durante la época Joseon, se encuentra al oeste de la montaña, cerca de Inwangsan. La ruta Bugak Skyway, que une Changuimun y Arirang Hill en Jeongneung, tiene unas magníficas vistas del centro de Seúl, y pasa por diversas atracciones como Changuimun y el Pabellón Bukak. Otra atracción es el Parque Samcheong, al sur del monte Bugaksan.
Los montes Inwangsan (al oeste de Bugaksan) y Naksan (al este) tenían ubicaciones perfectas según la geomancia coreana pungsu (feng-shui). El monte Inwangsan estaba plagado de tigres durante los comienzos de la dinastía Joseon. De acuerdo con la leyenda, el rey suplicó a la deidad de la montaña que enviara los tigres al otro lado del río Yalu. Aunque los tigres se marcharon, se le permitió quedarse a una tigresa con cachorros, cuyas crías se multiplicaron convirtiendo Inwangsan en un lugar temible lleno de tigres.
Inwang Skyway conecta la parte este de Insangwan con Bugaksan. La ladera este de Inwangsan se ha convertido en una elegante zona residencial, mientras que Guksadang (que significa literalmente "Santuario Nacional") fue desplazado de Namsan a un área al oeste de la montaña en la década de 1920. Aún hoy, se celebran exorcismos chamanes en el santuario, así como rituales en honor de las deidades de la montaña.

Jeongdong-gil 41-11, Jung-gu, Seúl.
Este sitio histórico se encuentra ubicado por detrás del palacio Deoksugung, cerca del Teatro Jeongdong. Fue la biblioteca real, construido durante el período 1897-1901, por el arquitecto ruso Seredin Sabatin, y consta de 3 pisos en total y es de estilo occidental. Su nombre original fue Suokheon. Después del incendio del palacio Deoksugung en el año 1904, fue utilizado como la oficina administrativa del rey y la sala de audiencia de las delegaciones extranjeras, y también fue el lugar trágico en donde se firmó el Tratado de Eulsa (tratado desigual en el que Corea fue ocupada y declarada protectorado japonés).
En un principio, el pabelló Jungmyeongjeon formaba parte del palacio Deoksugung, pero con el levantamiento del muro de piedra (conocido como el “Doldamgil de Deoksugung”), dejó de serlo. Es una de las primeras construcciones contemporáneas de Corea, pero por el incendio de 1925, solo ha quedado en pie la pared del edificio. Después de la independencia del dominio japonés (15 de agosto de 1945), ha tenido varios usos y dueños diferentes, hasta que en septiembre del 2006, el derecho de propiedad del inmueble pasó a la Administración de Patrimonios Culturales, y finalmente, en febrero del 2007, fue declarado Sitio Histórico Nº 124.
