Today, I will tell you about kyungun palace and I will tell you something that I was most interested in.
First thing that I was interested at was that at first, this palace was not palace. Then, what? I was King seongjong's brother's house. And this palace used afte imjin war because the other palaces were all burnt down. And second one was that king Gojong enjoyed drinking coffee. When he traveled Rusia, he didn't like their food. He wants Korea food. But he liked one thing in there. And it was coffee. So he thought that he want to bring it Coffee also in Korea, so he bring coffee to Korea and drank in Jung gwan Hun. Here is story about coffee. One day, Japanese put toxic in Gojong's coffee and his son's coffee. However, Gojong was smart about coffee, and he didn't drank it but his son drank all! So he became little bit crazy. And most interesting thing was that they didn't call coffee as coffee. They called coffee to "gabae".
But I was mad at Japanese because they changed Kyungun palace to Duksu palace. Before, I used to call it Duksu palace, But from now, I will call it kyungun palace. |
