Uhe-gak at Ojukon

Margaret's friend Christina, a former teacher at Best Language Institute, ascends the steps to Uhe-gak at Ojukon. This structure safeguards replicas of Yi Yul Guk's book and inkstone.

Yul Guk is considered one of Korea's great statesmen. He was a Neo-Confucian scholar of the Choson Dynasty (1392-1910). Yul Guk made his home at Ojukon with his mother, Shin Saimdang, also revered as a great scholar, artist, and poet.
