Beneath the wooden pillars and tiled roof of a serene hanok, the scenery of the daecheong maru and the warmth of the kitchen hearth in the main room. A Korean space where tradition and sensuality intertwine.
Respect for the structure and atmosphere of traditional hanok. Utilization of unique hanok elements like sliding paper doors, wooden floors, and underfloor heating. The atmosphere of a quiet night.
A lodging remodeled from a 100-year-old traditional house in Jeonju Hanok Village. On a weekday during the off-season, only one group of guests. There's a persimmon tree in the yard, and a subtle smell of fermenting soy sauce from the jar stand.
Sitting on the spacious grand daechung maru, the curves of the tiled roofs beyond the courtyard reflect in the moonlight. The cool texture of the wooden floorboards touching bare skin, the sound of raindrops falling from the eaves. Lighting a candle in the stone lantern in the courtyard feels like a time travel to the Joseon Dynasty, enveloped in serene stillness.
The warmth from the heated ondol floor, warmed by the kitchen fire, spreads throughout the entire floor. When you lay down the bedding, the heat rising from the floor warmly envelops your back. Through the paper sliding door, the moonlight from the wooden floor filters through the hanji paper and subtly seeps in, and the room is filled with a faint scent of white sandalwood.
Walking between the jangdokdae, gravel crunches underfoot. Rainwater pools on the jar lids, reflecting a half-moon above. Sitting on the platform under the persimmon tree, the scent of pine from the back mountain beyond the jangdokdae drifts in on the wind. The secret time of the backyard that no one knows.
