Today, I went to Gyeongun palace. I think it was bigger than the palace Changgyung. But this palace is also named as Deoksu palace, but the real name is Gyeongun palace. King Seon-Jo built this palace. But it was for his older brother. However, this palace was rebuilt by King Gojong and he changed the name of the Chosun dynasty into Daehanjeguk. I think JeongGwangHeon was the most interesting building I saw today. Did you know that King Gojong loved coffee? This place is where he drank his coffee and took a rest. Russian ambassadors build this for Gojong, so it has more kind of western style in this building. The most interesting part is that this place had bats on the design of it. In western culture, they thought this bat as a bad thing such as vampire. But in Korean culture, they thought the bat is a lucky animal. Do you know why they think like that? It's because they cried like Bock Bock kind of that. The Bok means a good thing in Korea, so they considered bat as a lucky animal. The weather was hot and humid, but the things I saw today made me excited and also made me forget about the weather.
