The present presentation keeps running until Sept. 6. Jungmyeongjeon is shut on Mondays. The structure was inherent 1896 as an imperial library, and it was arranged inside the castle grounds. The present regions of Korean castles are typically much littler than their unique sizes. The Japanese government cut back Korean royal residences trying to undermine illustrious power. Jungmyeongjeon was Korea's first advanced library, history specialists say. It was planned by Russian draftsman Fantasy Seredin-Sabatin, who composed a few different structures in Korea in the late nineteenth century.
 After a 1904 flame at Deoksu Palace, it was utilized as Gojong's makeshift home. It was then that it was renamed Jungmyeongjeon, which signifies "lobby of overwhelming light." The next year, it was the place Gojong was compelled to sign the Japan-Korea Protectorate Treaty, which encouraged Japan's frontier guideline of Korea beginning in 1910. In 1925, Jungmyeongjeon was torched in a flame. After Korea's freedom from Japan, it housed the Gyeongseong Club, a social club for nonnatives dwelling in Korea. (Gyeongseong is an old name for Seoul.)
 The responsibility for building changed hands a few times, as well. After freedom, it turned into a benefit of Joseon regal relatives, yet in the 1970s, it was sold to a private proprietor. It wasn't until 2006 that Jungmyeongjeon got to be state property once more. In 2010, it was restored to its unique shape and revived as a venue for social exercises. In any case, because of its off the beaten path area, it didn't get numerous guests. Be that as it may, since Jung District incorporated the building in the evening time visits and celebrations in the Jeong-dong territory in May, the quantity of guests took off, authorities say.
