These days, calligraphy has been a boom that even the movie titles are written by hand and I think Chusa is the origin who is a complete master of an art that creates new feeling within specific shape of handwriting. I could feel Chusa Gim Jeong-hee's spirit in the memorial hall who studied different kinds of handwriting and letters through documental archaeology and epigraphy and applying it to his own art and literature through preposterous trials.

This is House of Chusa, a must-go place before you die(798, Yonggung-ri, Sinam-myeon, Yesan-gun, Chungcheongnam-do). His grandmother is Hwasunongju, the second daughter of King Yeongjo, and she was a virtuous woman, in fact the only woman who died after her husband in the history of Joseon Dynasty. After her husband, Wolseongwi (月城尉) Gim Han-sin(1720∼1758 Chusa Gim Jeong-hee's great-grandfather), died of disease, she stopped eating and died in 14 days. King Yeongjo came to see her to change her mind but failed.


As a well-known noble family, Gim Jeong-hee's house had a big sot (Korean traditional caldron made of cast iron) that occupies quite a big space inside the gate. The mountain behind the house is a low hill and you could see the wide Yedang plain before your eyes if you go up. Over the plain, I see some good location where Sapgyocheon River and Muhancheon River meet leading to Asan Bay. The storyㅡbefore he was born, the pond behind Chusa's house dried up and the grass and trees were dried up on Palbongsan Mountain behind his house out of blue and after his birth, the pond was filled with water and trees and grass on the mountain started to sprout againㅡmight be passed down with the story about geographically good location because of his greatness.

Just like old house of well-known noble family would be, House of Chusa is a traditional noble family house in central area where it is rooted on a sunny place. As tangible cultural asset No.43 in Chungcheongnam-do, a detached house is on the right and the main building behind the detached house is partly seen from the gate. The detached room has 'ㄱ' structure consisting of one room with a door in the middle and a verse couplet carved on the pillar which was written by Chusa, and it would be fun to take a look around various bar patterns in each room.

The house in general is facing the east but the detached room is facing south. The stone monument with '石年' letters engraved on it is kind of a sundial to indicate the time.

The main building is structured with 'ㅁ' shape and you could get a clear view of wide floor when you get inside. On each side of the main floored room, there is a main room and a kitchen, and it has a guestroom inside the main building and a small kitchen on the opposite site. You could assume his family's power considering the doors and windows made for specific use by carpenter who was in construction field for the state in Hanyang at the time.

This is the backyard of House of Chusa that would add more elegance of nobleman with bloomed flowers and green leaves in spring in the front yard.

Chusayeongsil(秋史影室) connected to backyard behind the main building is the highest place in House of Chusa. 'Chusayeongsil' on the signboard is written by Yi Jae(彛齋) Kwon Don-in (權敦寅, 1783~1859), Chusa's friend(知己).

On the highest location within this house, there is a shrine that praises him that's called 'Chusayeongsil'. Behind the shrine, weak yellowish green leaves were in the white winter sunlight even against cold winter breeze. The water from melting ice on the whole roof was dripping and that clean sound heightened the excitement of spring rain together with yellowish green leaves.
