Located in Geochang, Wonhak Goga (Wonhak Old house) is regarded as the most beautiful hanok, or traditional Korean house, in the village of Hwangsan. Designated as Folk Material No. 17 in recognition of its value as a historic material, it is the largest and best preserved noble house in Gyeongsangnam-do Province, and is currently managed by Park Jeong-ja, the wife of the eldest son of the head family. It was originally opened to the public for the annual Keochang International Festival of Theater (KIFT) as there was insufficient accommodation to lodge the thousands of visitors to the festival. Therefore, the county suggested that Park provide people with a hanok accommodation to promote the village’s traditions. Accepting the suggestion, Park renovated the house by expanding the sarangchae room installing a modern-style washroom, and providing clean high-quality bedding. The house itself consists of seven structures in total including the anchae, sarangchae, jungmunchae, gotganchae, a tall gate, and a rear gate. Both the sarangchae and anchae have a half-hipped roof. Notably, the sarangchae has a total area of 99m2 and features a large girder and a round foundation stone. This traditional hanok house also boasts high-quality, refined interior decoration. The Geochang area is well known for both the Suseungdae scenic point, whose splendid surroundings include pure crystalline water, rocks, and a pine grove, and the Keochang International Festival of Theatre (KIFT) which is held every summer. After passing the main gate of the Suseungdae scenic point, in Whicheon-myeon, Gaochang-gun, and continuing along the road, visitors will come to Hwangsan Village, where a 600-year-old-zelkova tree welcomes them. In addition, visitors can enjoy the mural paintings created as part of a public art project by Geochang County while walking along the 1.2km-long stonewall (designated as a Gyeongsangnam-do Folk Material). The village of Hwangsan consists of two districts, one of which contains about fifty 100- to 200-year-old hanok houses, as well as Wonhak Goga, which has stood at the center of the village for about 500 years. Wonhak Goga, or the Old House of the Shin Clan, was originally built by Shin Gwon (pen-name Yosu), but was then demolished and rebuilt by Shin Jong-sam, a 10th-generation descendant of the family, in 1927. It is also a renowned family house and has remained a symbol of the family’s wealth and authority for many generations. Park’s father-in-law, Shin Do-seong, was a member of the National Assembly and worked as the Ministry of Unification, while her husband, Shin Wi-beom, worked as a school juristic person, gaining people’s confidence and trust. Furthermore, the house stands in an auspicious location in terms of geomantic principles, according to which the family’s descendants will have a peaceful and prosperous life for the next 400 years. Park hopes that guests will enjoy their stay amid the serene atmosphere of this old hanok house.

The village name “Woomyeong" means "The village where the oxen moo" in Korean. According to Korean feng shui, the village looks like an ox regurgitating in a comfortable crouching position. For farmers in the olden days, an ox was the symbol of prosperity and peace. This village has been regarded as one of the most fertile and prosperous areas in Korea. It was also the hometown of a famous scholar named Jeong, whose house now serves as a pension. The village has another name, “Hyo-ri,” which means "a village of devoted sons" in Korean, because the village was famous for having many devoted sons throughout generations. The pension is commonly called "Hyo-ri House" among the locals because the big house with a large field is regarded as the center of the village. The owner of the house transformed it into a pension in 2013, because he thought it would be nice to provide a comfortable place for visitors where they can just lie down on the wooden floor and look up the sky. There haven’t been many guests so far, but the owner says that his house can serve as a place where the guests can benefit from the good energy surrounding the village and learn history and culture during their stay. Guests are also welcome to pick vegetables from the field during their stay in the traditional Korean house and learn how the Korean scholars lived and studied in a farming family in the past.

The Chi-ong Art Center is a hanok-style culture complex situated amid a clean and quiet environment in Gyeonggi-do Province. The head of the art center, potter Kim Ho, originally ran a cultural life school for residents in Pocheon, but he settled at the foot of Chungnyeongsan Mountain in Gapyeong, Gyeonggi Province after the school was severely damaged by a huge flood in 1997. Kim established the center as a space to support the cultural and leisure activities of local residents and the creative activities of talented youth and artists. It took four years to build and comprises a gallery, seminar room, hanok accommodation, Korean restaurant, etc. The center attracts various types of guests including people who appreciate the beauty of hanok and the local landscape, family visitors, company groups, and couples among others. The overall structure of the center is very distinguished, and consists of three levels resembling staircases: the first level contains a Korean restaurant, the second level has a lecture room with a capacity of 60 persons, as well as a gallery with a pond and a pavilion set in a Korean garden; and the third level has guestrooms furnished with a toenmaru (a narrow wooden porch running along the outside of the building) and ondol floor heating, as well as a tall gate, a wide front yard, and tearoom. Although it was only built just over ten years ago, visitors say that it seems like an old hanok house because of the unvarnished roof tiles and the surrounding stonewall, which was built in the traditional dry-stone method using only local stones. The center offers diverse experience programs including tea ceremony, natural dyeing, mask, rice cake, and bean curd making programs, as well as a boudoir handicraft program. Its “prestige” program is the advanced tea ceremony class in which the head of the center teaches participants how to brew tea according to traditional etiquette, etc. As the Chi-ong Art Center has no TV or Internet, visitors have an opportunity to empty their heads and relax amid the serene environment, appreciate nature, take a walk in the garden or simply read a book.
