Deoksugung Palace, a repository of Korea's modern history, served as a royal palace twice during the Joseon Dynasty.

Its origins as a palace that traces back to King Seonjo, who used the residence of Prince Wolsan as a temporary palace (Jeongneung-dong Haenggung) upon returning from his refuge during the Japanese invasions.

Later, King Gwanghaegun renamed it Gyeongungung after relocating to Changdeokgung Palace. In 1897, King Gojong returned from the Russian Legation and once again used it as a royal palace.


Emperor Gojong rebuilt and revitalized the pavilions of Gyeongungung Palace to elevate the status of the Korean Empire. However, his efforts were thwarted by Japanese interference, and Gyeongungung began to be referred to as Deoksugung. The construction of Western-style buildings in Deoksugung reflected Emperor Gojong's aspirations for Korea to stand as a modern and independent nation on equal footing with Western powers. Unfortunately, this dream was crushed when Emperor Gojong was forced to abdicate in 1907 due to Japan's objection to the dispatch of the Hague emissaries. From this time onward, Gyeongungung became known as Deoksugung.


The Seokjojeon Hall, a representative Western-style building of the Korean Empire, and the plum blossoms, a symbol of the Korean imperial family, have been brought to life as cultural products for today's audience. These products capture the exquisite architectural beauty of Seokjojeon and incorporate the plum blossom motif into everyday items, evoking the dignity of the once-forgotten royal family. This is an opportunity to revisit Deoksugung, where the historically significant pavilions, each carrying their own story, stand together in harmony.
