Jeolla Gamyeong: authority and lived experience

Jeolla Gamyeong was the provincial seat of government. The reconstructed complex at 55 Jeolla-gamyeong-ro, Wansan-gu, Jeonju, offers a place to reflect on regional administration, investigation and judgment.[7]

Jeondong: remembrance outside the south gate

Yun Ji-chung and Kwon Sang-yeon died as martyrs outside Jeonju’s south gate on 8 December 1791. Jeondong Church commemorates that history at 51 Taejo-ro, Wansan-gu, Jeonju.[8]

Supjeongi: a distinct shrine

Supjeongi remembers martyrs of the Sinyu, Gihae and Byeongin persecutions. Visiting Jeonju’s shrines offers a broader view of faith communities across different periods.[9]
