[Photo] Munbaedo Attached to Gwanghwamun at Gyeongbokgung Palace

On the first day of the Lunar New Year holiday, the 11th, a 'Munbaedo' depicting a general wearing golden armor is displayed at Gwanghwamun in Gyeongbokgung, Jongno-gu, Seoul. Munbae refers to the custom of attaching paintings to the main gate of the palace on the first day of the lunar new year to ward off evil spirits and seek blessings, and the paintings attached at this time are called Munbaedo. This Munbaedo installation at Gwanghwamun was planned to comfort the hearts of the people weary from the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). It can be seen until the 14th. / Reporter Moon Honam munonam@
