Jirisan is one of the representative Korean restaurants in Insa-dong, an area known for its traditional culture. One of the trademarks of this restaurant, besides its amazingly delectable bean and tofu dishes, is a wooden sign that welcome guests into a neat and cozy interior.

Each day, fresh beans are ground at the restaurant to prepare dishes such as soybean paste, soft tofu, and bean-curd tofu stew. Bean-curds are prepared by using seawater, which gives the tofu a unique flavor. The fresh and clean taste of the tofu is one of the many reasons that choosey tofu aficionados flock to the restaurant.

Not just limited to tofu, Jirisan presents customers with a full-range of side dishes such as kimchi, japchae (glass noodles with sautéed vegetables), cucumber kimchi, seasoned seaweed, braised lotus roots, roasted yellow corbinas (a type of fish), leafy greens, bean-curd stew, and more. The restaurant gives visitors a chance to experience a hearty traditional Korean-style meal, but has thoughtfully toned down its seasonings to appeal to a wider audience (particularly those not used to spicy foods).

One of the recommended menu items is the Jirisan set meal, which offers diners the chance to sample foods that are popular in the Jirisan region. Adventurous diners may want to try the sea urchin soup or dried Pollack soup.

The restaurant, originally a traditional Korean house, has been modified over the years to better suit the needs of its customers.

Village musée de la porte Donuimun (돈의문박물관마을)

14-3, Songwol-gil, Jongno-gu, Séoul

Le village musée de la porte Donuimun est un village historique et culturel situé au cœur de la ville. Ce lieu, né de la régénération urbaine de Séoul, possède une grande valeur historique en tant que premier quartier que l'on trouve en entrant dans la vieille ville de Séoul par la porte ouest des murailles Hanyangdoseong. C'est un témoin de la vie et des souvenirs de Séoul.

Ce village, ainsi que le quartier voisin de Gyonam-dong de l'arrondissement de Jongno-gu, a été sélectionné comme zone de la « Donuimun New Town » en 2003. Il était prévu de démolir tous les bâtiments existants dans cette zone et de créer un parc. Cependant, en tant que premier quartier à l'intérieur de la porte ouest des murailles Hanyangdoseong, la ville a voulu promouvoir la valeur historique du quartier de Saemunan et préserver le site tel un village musée. Ainsi, la ville de Séoul a émis le souhait plus global de créer un site historique et culturel important pour ses habitants. Dans ce cadre, les bâtiments du village ont été rénovés en conservant leur apparence originale alors qu'une grande cour a été créée à la place de plusieurs maisons. Les bâtiments modernes et contemporains, les hanoks urbains et les ruelles centenaires sont restés dans leur état initial aux mêmes endroits afin de devenir un nouveau lieu culturel où de nombreux visiteurs peuvent désormais se rendre.

Actuellement, le village musée de la porte Donuimun accueille les visiteurs après avoir été rénové sous le thème des « 100 ans de Séoul, terrain de jeux pour un voyage dans le temps ». Les 40 bâtiments existants ont été laissés tels quels alors qu'un espace « participatif » a été créé où des expositions, des programmes d'activités, des spectacles et des marchés se tiennent tout au long de l'année afin de nourrir l'identité de « village musée vivant » qui était l'objectif principal de la création de ce village.
