We want to tell the stories of a special group of people and revisit the time and space they lived in. They were "Seonbi" or virtuous Confucian scholars, who preached on the dignity of life, debated virtues in real life, which gave their living spaces a distinctive character.
We present the exhibition which is divided in three themes that reflect the lives of Seonbi-"Old Houses", "Confucian Academies" and "Nine Scenic Valleys". The exhibition explores the houses and schools, which were built with an architectural style that reflected the beautiful surrounding nature, to recreate the living spaces and lives of Seonbi, who doubled as scholars and social leadership figures during their times.
We sincerely hope that the exhibition will bring you closer to the lives of Seonbi and provide a lasting impression and knowledge of the Confucianist heritage the Chungcheong Province has long cherished.
