This is the Soyojeong Pavilion.<br /> Have you ever slowly walked without caring about the eyes of others? The 'Soyo' of Soyojeong means to slowly walk as one pleases. If the deepest located precious pavilion was named Soyojeong, could the king have secretly wished to walk unabated?<br /><br /> Joseon's 22nd king Jeongjo often came here to rest, to recharge his mind through rest and contemplation. He spoke of the Soyojeong, ‘resting at the Soyojeong is not just simply idly watching the scenery, but it helps in running the nation in a careful and humble manner. Future generations, understand this and try not to destroy Soyojeong's original form even when it is undergoing repairs'.<br /><br /> king Jeongjo was famous for entertaining his ministers by holding a Yusanggoksuyeon, which is a game that consists of floating a wineglass on the water and composing a poem before it arrives before oneself. In 1793, king Jeongjo specially called 41 one his closest officials to hold a party by floating wineglasses on the Okryucheon Soyoam and compose poetry. 42 poems from this event were stored as a roll of parchment, and still remain today as a valuable National Treasure. The red and blue papers they used to write the poetry were decorated with gold and mica dust. One can imagine people writing poetry on the best quality fragrant paper of the palace.
