Today, i went to Gyeongungung palance, and i learned about Japsang, and Junghwajeon.
First, Japsang is a figure that on the roof. In Joseon Dynasty, people believed that Japsang could chase bad spirits.In Japsang, there are Samjang,Sonogong,Jeopalgye, and saojeong.
The first one is Samjang, the Buddist monk. The second one is Sonogong, the monkey.The third one is Jeopalgye, the pig. The fourth one is Saojeong, the water ghost.These are characters from Seoyugi.
Second, Junghwajeon is the king's main building. In Junghwajeon, prince could do his cornation, and visit other countries envoies.In front of the Junghwajeon, there are a lot of rank stones.Rank stones show us that time's each person's classes.The king's left are scholars, and rights are military officers.
