Seocheoncheongjeolsa Temple

This shrine enshrines Yu Gi-chang, who held the post of Senior Commissioner of the Central Duty Council and who, during the reign of Yeonsangun, was implicated through his association with Left State Councillor Seong Jun — who had been strangled to death after strongly remonstrating against Yeonsangun's tyranny — and was exiled, but was released following the restoration of King Jungjong and lived here afterwards in seclusion; Yu Yeo-rim, who served as Minister of Rites; Yu Hong, who as Left State Councillor under King Seonjo dealt with a national crisis and was ranked a first-class Merit Subject for Clarifying the State (Gwangguk); Yu Hwang, a towering figure of the anti-Qing faction under King Injo who, as Left Deputy Royal Secretary, lived by righteous principle among the hardline faction opposed to peace negotiations during the Manchu invasion of 1636; and Yu Gye, who was deeply versed in ritual studies under King Injo.
