🔵A bathouse.
🔵This is a traditional Korean public bathhouse, known as a mogyoktang (목욕탕), which were prevalent in the 1980s and earlier in South Korea.
🔵Mogyoktang served as essential community hubs for hygiene and socialization, predating the rise in popularity of the more elaborate jjimjilbang complexes that emerged in the 1990s.
🔹Washing Stations: There are multiple individual washing stations with faucets and basins, designed for pre-soaking and scrubbing before entering the larger communal baths.
🔹Bathing Tubs: Two large, tiled bathing tubs are visible, which are typically filled with hot water for communal soaking.
🔹Tiled Interior: The entire space is covered in white and blue checkered tiles, a common and practical choice for wet environments like bathhouses.
🔹Purpose: Such facilities are popular for relaxation, hygiene, and social interaction, offering various pools, saunas, and sometimes even sleeping areas or dining options.
🔹Architectural Style: The simple, tiled design with multiple individual washing stations and larger communal bathing tubs is characteristic of older mogyoktang facilities, which were common before the widespread adoption of modern jjimjilbangs.
🔹Historical Context: In the 1980s, public bathhouses were a necessary ritual for many Koreans, as a significant portion of households lacked proper showers or hot water at home.
🔹Gender Segregation: While not explicitly shown in this single image, mogyoktang facilities are traditionally gender-segregated, with separate areas for men and women, often featuring similar layouts within each section.
🔹Contrast with Modern Jjimjilbangs: While modern jjimjilbangs offer a broader range of facilities like saunas, relaxation areas, and entertainment, the image reflects the more basic and functional design of bathhouses from that era.

🔵Ke bahagian seterusnya.
🔵Kelihatan Pagoda National Folk Museum of Korea.
🔵The National Folk Museum of Korea also features a replica school building within its open-air exhibits, specifically designed to evoke the atmosphere of a "gungminhakgyo" (national peoples' school) from the 1970s and 80s, which was the precursor to the modern elementary school. This exhibit offers a glimpse into the educational environment of that era,
🔹The school building is part of the museum's outdoor exhibition, which aims to evoke the atmosphere of the 1980s.
🔹The "gungminhakgyo" name was used for primary schools before the term "chodeunghakgyo" (elementary school) became standard in 1996.
🔵The museum's open-air exhibits go beyond just the school, showcasing other aspects of traditional Korean life and culture, including replicas of spirit posts, stone piles for worship, grinding mills, rice storage, and kimchi pot pits.
🔵This is s Rotary Grinding Mill.
🔹Rotary grinding mills were driven by an ox or horse and used to mill grain.
🔹Rotary mills, where the upper mill stone ran horizontally on the base stone through the power of work animals, were much more efficient than hand mills with mortars and pestles, which utilized pressing and rotating motions.
🔹During the grinding, one person held reins of the ox or horse pulling the mill stone, and another person fed and turned the crops with a wooden shovel.
🔹Building a rotary grinding mill required much money so villagers usually built and used them collectively.
🔹Such mills almost completely disappeared with the introduction of mechanical mills.
🔵Wooden Chest for Rice Seeds
🔹A wooden chest, narakdwiju in Korean, is used for storing rice seeds after harvesting.
🔹It is also called as narakduji, dudaetong, byeotduji, dukjip according to regions.
🔹The bottom of the chest was floated about forty centimeters from the ground.
🔹The walls was built with large wooden boards and placed straw roofs.
🔹Gaps between the boards were filled with chestnut burrs so that rats could not enter.
🔹The wooden chest was brought from a vemacular house located in Seojung-ri, Sanbuk-myeon, ungyeong-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do; that had been used since 1870s.
🔵Memorial Stone and Other Stone Objects from Gen. Nam O-seong's Tomb
🔹This memorial stone, pair of civil official statues, altar, and incense burner stand are from the tomb of General Nam O-seong, which was discovered in Seoksan-ri, Taean-eup, Taean-gun of Chungcheongnam-do in 2002.
🔹Born in 1643, Nam O-seong passed the military service state examination in 1676.
🔹He served in various posts including the naval commander of Chungcheong, Jeolla, and Gyeongsang provinces and died in 1712.
🔹The front of the memorial stone reveals that the tomb held the remains of General Nam and his wife, and the back of the stone contains an epitaph composed by the general's grandson, Im Bak.
🔵Stone Altar
🔹A wide, rectangular stone platform was erected in front of a tomb to place food sacrifices and incense burners during ancestral rites.
🔹The altar on display was donated by Seoul resident Kim Seong-heum when he moved tombs of his ancestors to another location.
🔵Stone Statues of Civil Officials
🔹Stone statues in the shape of a civil official wearing formal attire and holding official's tablet guarded the tombs of important people.
🔹Other stonework erected at tombs included statues of military officers wearing armor and holding swords, memorial stones, posts, altars, and stands for incense burners.
🔵Memorial Building and Gate for the Filial Piety
🔹Heo Gwon (1847-1895) was commended by the Joseon Dynasty for his filial piety.
🔹The commemorative stone, the building constructed to house it, and the gate to the building reflect the social values, architectural style, and sophistication of crafts of the time.
🔹The building was originally located on the premises of the estate of Heo's descendent in Buan-gun of Jeollabuk-do and moved to the National Folk Museum of Korea in 2008.
🔹Some of the pillars were repaired in the process, and the fence was added to mark off the area.
🔹The building features colorful paintwork on wood and carvings of the lotus bud, dragon, and phoenix.
🔹On the gate, there is a board with inscription of "Gate of filial piety" and paintings of the tiger, plum blossom, orchid, chrysanthemum, and bamboo.
🔵Objects of Communal Worship in a Village Cairn Guardian Post Sacred Pole
🔹Traditional Korean villages had a shrine for the guardian spirit at the back of the village, and guardian posts, sacred poles, stone stacks, and sacred trees at the village entrance.
🔹Villagers worshipped these sites, praying for safety and an abundant harvest.
🔹The objects of worship on display are of the most common types found at village entrances.
🔹The guardian posts and sacred poles are full-size replicas representing characteristic features of posts and poles in each region of Korea.
To be continued.
