Songho Yeongdang

Songho Yeongdang is a shrine that enshrines the portraits of Nuljae Park Sang (朴祥) and Saam Park Sun (朴淳) and was built in 1728. It was originally located in Jeolgol Village, Seochang-dong, the birthplace of Park Sang, but was later moved to its current location. From December 22, 1995 to April 16, 1996, repair work was carried out on the shrine, walls, and entrance stairs, and from October 12, 1997 to January 16, 1998, the Hyojagak was built. Afterwards, from September 2 to October 14, 1998, the stone retaining wall of the shrine was repaired. The platform of this shrine is built on a cement base, with the center used as the place for enshrining the portraits and partitions installed on the left and right to create ondol rooms. On the rear wall, a nal-dori was placed over the janghyeo as a changbangso, and dancheong was applied to the front but has deteriorated. The windows and doors are bunhapmun and have bitsal (gyosal) lattice, and the bracket work above the judu follows the ikgong style. The eaves are double eaves, the wall was built with red bricks, and the main gate is a pyeongmun.
Nuljae Bak Sang (1472–1530) passed the regular civil service examination in the 7th year of King Yeonsangun's reign (1501) and served in the royal court for about 29 years, beginning as a jeongja of the Gyoseogwan and ending as Naju Moksa in the 24th year of King Jungjong's reign (1529). Saam Bak Sun (1523–1548) was his nephew and a literary scholar of the mid-Joseon period. Saam took first place in the regular literary examination in the 8th year of King Myeongjong's reign (1553) and served in the royal court for about 35 years, beginning as a jeonjeok of the Yemungwan. The Songho Yeongdang also preserves the collected works of Saam and Nuljae.
