The Blue House of Korea was built in the Sukjong period of Goryeo, and it was originally the palace of the Goryeo Dynasty. Since the resignation of South Korea’s presidents after the founding of the country did not end well in the end, some people have always questioned the Cheong Wa Dae’s “feng shui problem”. In May 2022, after Yin Xiyue took office as the president of South Korea, he moved the office out of the Blue House and opened the Blue House to the public.
