Gwanmiheon

Gwanmiheon

Gwanmiheon is a traditional hanok house situated at the end of the Ahopsan Forest trail, just before returning to the ticket office. The name translates as 'valuing even the plants that seem insignificant, like ferns', reflecting the philosophy of the Nampyeong Moon family towards nature. Built 60 years ago, it remains an active residence for the family who own the forest, offering visitors a glimpse of authentic Korean domestic architecture and the values that shaped this woodland space.

The King: Eternal Monarch Dimensional Door Set

The King: Eternal Monarch Dimensional Door Set

This ornate gateway structure was built for the 2020 Korean drama 'The King: Eternal Monarch' to film scenes of characters crossing into a parallel world. After production wrapped, the set was left permanently in the forest and has since become a popular photography spot for visitors to Busan. It's a worthwhile visit for fans of the series and those interested in K-drama production design.
