KKULJUDANG(Korean Traditional Liquor Atelier)

Incheon(Dong-gu) , Incheon Center

The Alchemist of Incheon: Brewing Culture at "Kkuljudang (Korean Traditional Liquor Atelier)" (Where a "Liquor Artist" Transforms Rice into Golden Memories in the Historic Baedari District) Incheon, South Korea — In the fast-paced world of travel, Incheon is often seen merely as a gateway—a city of terminals and transit. But for the discerning traveler willing to venture just beyond the airport, a profound cultural treasure awaits in the nostalgic alleys of Baedari. Welcome to Kkuljudang (Korean Traditional Liquor Atelier), the only operating traditional brewery in Incheon’s Dong-gu district. It is more than a bottle shop; it is a Traditional Liquor School and a sanctuary of fermentation where the history of Korea is brewed, bottled, and taught. The Masterpiece: "Geumchang Makgeolli" (2025 Grand Prize Winner) The soul of Kkuljudang (Korean Traditional Liquor Atelier) is its signature brew, Geumchang Makgeolli. This is not the mass-produced rice wine found in convenience stores; it is a work of art that captivated the judges to win the Grand Prize (Best Takju) at the 2025 Korea Liquor Awards within just one year of its launch. • The Philosophy of Purity: It is a Sungokju (Pure Grain Wine), crafted using nothing but rice, water, and Nuruk (traditional fermentation starter). • The Process: While commercial brands rush production, Kkuljudang waits. The liquor undergoes a labor-intensive "Sam-yang-ju" process (brewed three times) followed by two months of fermentation and aging. • The Taste Profile: By intentionally lowering the sugar content of the rice, the brew achieves a sophisticated structure. It is dry yet subtly sweet, with surprising notes of banana and vanilla emerging naturally from the rice—without a single drop of artificial flavoring. As the owner describes, it is designed to be "a drink you can enjoy deeply," with a clean finish that beckons the next sip. The Sustainable Gourmet: Upcycled Pairing For a complete sensory journey, we recommend the Geumchang Makgeolli Gift Set. It pairs the award-winning wine with a unique culinary innovation: Upcycled "Jigemi" Snacks. Made from the nutrient-rich rice lees left over from brewing, these snacks (available in Sweet & Salty or Spicy flavors) represent the atelier's commitment to sustainability. They are best enjoyed in the beautiful "Moon Cup" (Dal-jan), which mimics the image of a full moon floating in your drink. The Experience: Become a Brewer for a Day Kkuljudang (Korean Traditional Liquor Atelier) invites you to stop being a spectator and start being a creator. The venue operates as a Traditional Liquor School, offering programs ranging from professional 15-week master classes to accessible One-Day Classes perfectly suited for travelers. • The One-Day Brewing Class: This is an unmissable itinerary for visitors. Under the guidance of the master brewer, you can learn to make Danyangju (single-brew rice wine), the foundation of Korean liquor. It is a hands-on experience where you touch the grain, smell the yeast, and understand the science of fermentation. • Hyangeumjurye (Drinking Etiquette): Beyond brewing, guests can learn the traditional Korean etiquette of drinking, adding a layer of cultural depth to the tasting experience. The Artisan: The "Liquor Artist" The vision behind Kkuljudang (Korean Traditional Liquor Atelier) belongs to CEO Na Yoon-kyung, who prefers the title "Liquor Artist" (Sul-Jakga). Her journey began with a fascination for vinegar—the natural progression of fermented alcohol—which led her to the world of traditional brewing. "Just as a painter creates with a brush, I create flavors through living microorganisms. I can make the liquor sweet or bitter, orchestrating the life within the bottle," says Na. Her dream is to revitalize the old downtown of Incheon, turning it into a "playground for brewers" where warmth and culture flow as freely as the wine. The Ultimate Layover: A Transit Tour Destination The atelier has a clear mission for the international traveler: "Don't just pass through Incheon; taste it." Located conveniently for those coming from Incheon International Airport, it serves as an ideal Transit Tour destination. Instead of waiting in a terminal, spend your layover in a historic brewery. Make your own makgeolli, taste the award-winning vintage, and carry the scent of Korea with you to your next destination.

DODEUN ART HOUSE(Gallery Cafe)

Incheon(Jung-gu) , Incheon Center

Time Reimagined: The Artistic Soul of "DODEUN ART HOUSE" (A Historic Sanctuary Where Art, Coffee, and Heritage Converge) Incheon, South Korea — In the heart of Incheon’s Open Port district, where the air is thick with the romance of a bygone era, there stands a building that refuses to forget its past. DODEUN ART HOUSE is not merely a renovation; it is a resurrection. Ideally situated directly across from the local museum, this venue has transformed a historic "Go-ok" (Old House) into a complex cultural space, preserving its original architectural character while infusing it with the vibrant pulse of modern art. The Architecture of Memory The philosophy behind DODEUN ART HOUSE is one of deep respect for heritage. Rather than erasing the traces of time, the owner has meticulously preserved the original form of the vintage dwelling. The weathered textures and structural integrity of the old house have been kept intact, offering visitors a rare opportunity to step into a space that embodies the unique, rustic charm of Incheon’s history. It is a dialogue between the old and the new, creating an atmosphere that is both nostalgic and exhilaratingly contemporary. A Dynamic Canvas: The 10-Day Transformation The first floor serves as the cultural heartbeat of the venue. Unlike static galleries, DODEUN ART HOUSE is a dynamic hub of creativity where exhibitions change every 10 days. This rapid rotation ensures that the space is always alive with fresh narratives, showcasing a diverse array of works by talented local and international artists. For the frequent traveler or the art-loving tourist, this means that every visit offers a completely new visual experience, making it one of the most popular cultural destinations in the district. The Botanical Attic & Terrace (2nd Floor) Ascend to the second floor, and the journey continues. This space is designed as a gallery cafe, a sanctuary where one can sip coffee while surrounded by art. The interior, resembling a cozy, botanical attic, opens up to a charming outdoor terrace. Here, overlooking the historic streets of the Open Port, visitors can enjoy the breeze and the view, finding a moment of perfect stillness amidst their travels. Farm-to-Cup Freshness: The Signature "Green Tangerine Tea" While the art feeds the soul, the menu nourishes the body. The absolute pride of DODEUN ART HOUSE is the Green Tangerine Tea (Cheonggyul-cha). This is not an ordinary fruit tea. It is crafted using fresh, seasonal green tangerines directly sourced from the farm. Because it uses ingredients shipped straight from the orchard at the peak of their freshness, the flavor is exceptionally vibrant and aromatic. It is a zesty, vitamin-rich masterpiece that has become the most sought-after menu item among returning guests. Of course, the menu also features the beloved Jeju Hallabong Latte and Jeju Strawberry Latte, offering a sweet taste of Korea’s island paradise.

Mokjo did what the monk told him, and his 5th great-grandson, King Taejo, became a King of the Joseon Dynasty.

Hyangudang (향우당)

Gyeongsangnam-do(Miryang-si)

Located in Eoleumgol, Milyang, Gyeongsangnam-do, Hyangudang is an old house built in 1900. It consists of a wide grass lawn, a main building, a detached building, and an annex. The main building is composed of main hall (daecheong maru), underfloor heating system, a kitchen, and an attic; the detached building, meanwhile, includes underfloor heating, a kitchen, and a bathroom. Both main building and detached building have two rooms (big room and small room). If you book the big room, you can use the maru (living room) between the rooms as well. It is a rule that if a group stays in the big room, the small room is kept empty. A big group, however, may pay extra to use the small room as well. There is a seminar room with a beam projector and audio equipment, which can be utilized for group events. The owner runs not just Hyangudang Hanok Stay but also several farms. Thus, guests can participate in various activities using natural materials such as apple picking, magnolia tea making, natural dye making, and others. The closed school right next to Hyangudang is usually used as a parking lot but can also serve other purposes such as outdoor parties or simple sport matches. Special events such as apples offered at discounted prices to guests take place depending on the season.
