[Korea Travel Guide] 

Experience Hanok, 

Advantage of Hanok  and Science

One of the things you must experience 

in your trip to Korea 

is to experience Hanok life. 

Hanok is a traditional Korean house. 

If foreigners visit Korea, 

I recommend you to experience Hanok.

Hanok is the house 

of the Joseon Dynasty. 

It is a type of house of Joseon nobility. 

It is not a house of ordinary people. 

As already known, 

hanok is a very scientific house 

and a nature-friendly house.

Hanok's science

The hanok consists of a harmonious combination 

of fire and wood. 

In the winter, it warms from 

the bedroom to the warm ondol, 

and in the summer, 

it lives in a cool living room.

The doors of the living room are fully open. 

It is a structure in which the wind 

communicates back and forth. 

Fire and trees are antagonistic. 

However, the harmony 

of fire and wood is a hanok. 

It uses fire in winter and trees 

in summer. 

Fire and wood do not fight each other, 

but coexist at the border.

The main materials 

of the hanok are woody clay soil, 

and Hanji. 

Hanji is traditional Korean paper. 

Hanji, which is used in Hanok, 

is also a material from nature. 

The function of Hanji is firstly breathable.

Adjust the communication 

between the inside and outside 

of the room appropriately. 

So it keeps fresh air 

and has the effect of insulation.

Hanji also has a light control function. 

Strong sunlight moderates 

and makes people feel the best lighting.

Hanok's aesthetics

Hanok has an aesthetic structure 

that brings nature as it is. It is 

a way to borrow nature. 

When you open window, 

jusr coming landscape into the room. 

you can feel the nature in the room of Hanok.

In Korea, some kind of Hotel 

and Guest Houses can experience 

a hanok Life. 

There is Insadong Guesthouse in Seoul, 

Hanok Village in Jeonju, 

and Hanok hotel in Gyeongju.
