The Hanok Smith Likes is an Italian restaurant that can be found in an alley near the Embassy of the Republic of Poland. The restaurant is famous for serving homemade Italian cuisine in traditional Korean house in Samcheong-dong.
The Smith in the restaurant’s name refers to a Mr. Smith, a virtual person cooks his favorite dishes in a hanok. One of the interesting aspects about this restaurant is that they serve hwadeok pizza (brick oven pizza) and pastas which are not the Korean dishes one might expect given the hanok exterior. They also serve salads, risotto, steak and wine at the restaurant. Particularly, the nighttime atmosphere of the restaurant offers a more serene and cozy experience thanks to the traditional hanok architecture.

La puerta Gwanghwamun es la entrada principal del palacio Gyeongbokgung, levantada en 1395 por Taejo, el primer rey de la dinastía Joseon. Es la puerta sur de las cuatro puertas de la antigua ciudad de Hanyang (Seúl), levantadas sobre los cuatro puntos cardinales.
Su nombre significa “la luz de la civilización iluminará el mundo”, y contiene los altos propósitos que la dinastía Joseon tuvo al ser establecida. Gwanghwamun había sido construida de granito. En el centro se halla una entrada que se asemeja al arco iris, denominado Hongyemun, y arriba está la torre del portal.
Gwanghwamun guarda un recuerdo amargo de la historia de Corea. Durante la ocupación de Corea por los japoneses (1910-1945), el gobierno colonial nipón destruyó la puerta con el objetivo de suprimir la nación coreana, y en su emplazamiento levantó el Edificio de la Gobernación de Corea. Hacia el año 1968, el gobierno coreano construyó de nuevo la puerta Gwanghwamun, pero usando concreto. Sin embargo, en el año 2010 se completaron los trabajos de restauración total en madera, que es la que se ve actualmente.
