Dangyeong

Beginning of brightness that is what Hanok Guesthouse Dangyeong means. The name reflects the politeness and consideration of the people of Jeonju. It also carries the wish for the guests of the guesthouse to become polite and considerate as well. Since it was built in June 1943, Dangyeong has kept its original form intact through the turbulent period of Korea's liberation from Japanese colonization, Korean War, and modernization. Despite the traditional form, the approximately 70-year-old Hanok is convenient to use and is beautiful in shape, emitting its beauty and gracefulness to the visitors of Jeonju Hanok Village. Anyone staying in Dangyeong will feel as if he/she has become a noble man/woman of old Korea. The white birch garden at the entrance, maple tree, and apricot flower tree in the yard create a seasonal atmosphere. Dansil, Hyangsil, and Gyeongsil of the main building and Byeolsil and Dasil of the separate building are equipped with a wooden floor, giving off a delicate wood scent. The gallery opposite the garden displays artworks and provides a space for guests to have breakfast or drink coffee or tea. The rooftop of the gallery is a special place for guests so that they can enjoy an uninterrupted view of Jeonju Hanok Village over drinks.
