Korea royal refuge at the Russian legation also called Agwan Pacheon in Korean, occurred after the First Sino-Japanese War during a period of factional confrontation within the Korean royal court. King Gojong of the Joseon Dynasty and his crown prince took refuge from the Gyeongbok Palace at the Russian legation in Seoul, from which they controlled the Korean government for about one year from February 11, 1896 to February 20, 1897. Their escape took place in secrecy; it was arranged by the pro-Russian official Yi Beom-jin, the Russian consul Karl Ivanovich Weber, and others.

[Korea Snapshot] Former Russian Legation
Art exhibition at former Seoul Station explores history of coffee in Korea
모던보이도 사랑한 커피...'커피사회' 대한민국
These days in Korea, coffee is served in shops on just about every street and alley.
It's a fixture of mornings, lunchtime and evenings.
But that wasn't always the case.
It's only been a little over a hundred years since the drink was introduced here.
Now, there's an exhibition at the old Seoul Station downtown... about the history of Korea's coffee culture.
Park Se-young reports.
Historical records show the first coffee in Korea was served to King Gojong in 1895 when he was taking refuge at the Russian Legation.
He enjoyed having coffee and snacks at Jeonggwanheon Pavilion in Deoksugung Palace.
Regular Koreans could first taste coffee from the 1920s at the country's first western restaurant inside the old Seoul Station, …and people today have come to that same spot to explore how coffee culture began to spread in Korea.
The exhibition Winter Coffee Club reflects on the changing history of coffee culture and how it has affected Korean society.
Yi Sang, a modern literature writer who went on to open his own coffee shop, or dabang, displayed his knowledge and interest in coffee through his illustrations.
After the Korean War, coffee was distributed along with relief items and began to establish its position in the country.
Locally-made instant coffee mixes took off in Korea in the 1970s, …and coffee vending machines and dabang coffee shops became commonplace.
Coffee today is not just food and has more meaning than as a commodity. The exhibition hopes to show how deeply coffee has become a part of our everyday life.
The exhibition of the story of coffee will run until February 21st at Culture Station Seoul 284.

The Untold Story - The Korean Empire
Empire legation building in Washington D.C. regained after 102 years
Korean Empire, the first and only empire country in the history of Korea.
Korean Empire existed in the history of our nation for a short time from 12 October 1897 until 29 August 1910. At that time, it was the period of upheaval against the powers to represent itself as a modern independent nation in the world.
Gojong, the first emperor who informed Korean Empire proclaimed the secret policy for the independence and advancement of culture. In 1891, for the attempts of the independent diplomacy, Emperor bought $ 25,000 worth of abroad legation building.
The legation was the abroad diplomacy empire which could overcome the sorrow of the weak country in the crowd of powers.
However, after the forced merge in 1910, the building was emptied of ownership pass to Japan for only $ 5. Legation in Washington for the Empire of Korea which overlaid the despair and anguish of Emperor Gojong vanished from our memories.
Finally, in October 2012, the legation was brought back in the bosom of the nationals of the Republic of Korea. Stories about the legation which was not revealed around the world during the past century begins now!

In Arirang TV's 2013 new year's special edition, The Untold Story -'The Korean Empire', we will meet the reign of King Gojong, which had not been appreciated in the past, referred as 'lost history.', deprived of its liberation and Korea's tumultuous modern history in the Japanese colonial period.
We will discover the Korean Empire legation that comes up sorrow of the deprived country in Logan Circle on the 15th Street, Washington D.C. in which remains the breath of the past.
102년 만에 되찾은 주미 대한제국 공사관!
한국 역사상 최초이자 유일한 황제국가, 대한제국.
대한제국은 1897년 10월 12일부터 1910년 8월 29일까지 짧은 시간 동안 우리 역사에 존재했다.
이때는 열강에 맞서 근대적 자주독립 국가임을 세계에 알리기 위해 노력하던 격변의 시기이기도 했었다.
대한제국을 선포한 초대 황제 고종은 대한제국의 자주독립과 문화 선진을 위해 다양하고도 은밀한 정책을 펼쳤다.
그 중 자주외교의 투철한 의지가 담겨있는 시도는 1891년, 황제의 내탕금, 2만5000달러를 들여 최초로 외국에 해외공사관을 매입한 것이다.
이 공사관은 열강의 틈바구니에서 약소국의 설움을 딛고 자주외교를 펼치기 위한 대한제국의 해외 외교 전진기지였다.
그러나 1910년 한일 강제병합 후 단돈 5달러에 일본 공사에게 소유권을 넘겨야 했던 비운의 건물이다.
고종 황제의 고뇌와 절망이 겹쳐있던 주미 대한제국 공사관은 그렇게 우리들의 기억 속에서 사라졌다.
그러나 2012년 10월!
워싱턴에서 기적처럼 원형을 거의 잃지 않고 남아있던 공사관이 오랜 노력 끝에 102년 만에 드디어 대한민국 국민의 품에 돌아오게 되었다.
그리고 지난 세기동안, 세상에 드러나지 않았던 공사관을 둘러싼 이야기가 지금 시작된다.
조선왕조 마지막 공주, 이해경 여사와 함께한 여정!
고종 황제의 친손녀 이해경 여사.
그녀조차 몰랐던 아버지 의친왕과 나아가 나라 안팎으로 활동했던 대한제국인들의 조국 독립 운동. 그 치열한 몸부림이 있었다.
아리랑TV 2013년 신년 특집 The Untold Story, The Korea Empire 다큐멘터리에서 그 동안 '잃어버린 역사'로 불리며 제대로 평가받지 못했던 고종 통치기와 대한제국의 역사.
구한말부터 일제시대, 그 해방과 격동의 한국 근현대사를 빼앗긴 주미 대한제국 공사관이란 열쇠로 풀어 나가본다.
한 세기 전, 대한제국 외교관들의 숨결이 그대로 남아있는 워싱턴 로건서클 15번가에서 망국의 한을 고스란히 감당해낸 대한제국 공사관을 만나본다.
Korean Empire
Korean Empire
------------------------
The Korean Empire, Corea, or Daehan Jeguk (Greater Korean Empire or Great Han Empire) is the name of the state of Korea that existed from the Proclamation of the Korean Empire in October 1897 to the Annexation of Korea by Japan on August 20, 1910. It succeeded the Joseon Dynasty. In October 1897, Emperor Gojong proclaimed the new entity at Gyeongungung Palace and oversaw the partially successful modernization of the military, economy, land system, education system, and various industries. Japan became wary of the speed at which the Korean Empire was modernizing and decided to speed up its plans for annexation. These plans were accelerated after the assassination of Ito Hirobumi. On August 22, 1910, Korea was annexed by Imperial Japan. With the assassination of his wife Empress Myeongseong, King Gojong and Crown Prince (later became Emperor Sunjong) fled to the Russian legation in 1896. During the time from Queen Min's death to the king's return from Russian protection, Korea underwent another major upheaval both at home and abroad. By 1894, new laws passed by pro-Japanese progressives in the royal cabinet forced through long-desired reforms aimed at revamping Korea's antiquated society. These laws were called the Gabo Reforms referring to the year (1894) in which they began. Meanwhile, the new reforms aimed at modernizing Korean society soon attracted controversy from within. Anti-Japanese sentiment, which had already become entrenched in the minds of commoners and aristocrats alike during the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592--1598), became pervasive in the royal court and upper echelons of society following the Ganghwa Treaty of 1876 and soon extended explosively to most Koreans following perceived Japanese meddling in court politics and the assassination of Empress Myeongseong. However, the new and controversial reforms pushed forward by the pro-Japanese progressives ignited further resentment and discontent. This led to the uprising of the Eulmi temporary armies aimed at avenging the assassination of Empress Myeongseong. In 1897, King Gojong, yielding to rising pressure from both overseas and the demands of the Independence Association-led public opinion, returned to Gyeongungung (modern-day Deoksugung). There, he proclaimed the founding of the Empire of Korea, officially redesignated the national title as such, and declared the new era name Gwangmu (meaning warrior of light), effectively severing Korea's superficial historic ties as a tributary of Qing Dynasty, which Korea had adhered to since the prior Manchurian invasion in 1636. King Gojong became the Gwangmu Emperor, the first imperial head of state and hereditary sovereign of the Empire of Korea. This marked the complete end of the old world order and traditional amicable dependency system in the Far East. Korea's new status as an empire meant Complete independence from Qing's sphere of influence which means Korea was not influenced by Qing externally according to the Treaty of Shimonoseki of 1895 and also implemented the full and complete independence according to the treaty. The name, meaning Great Han Empire, was chosen to indicate the revival of the Samhan confederacies of the Proto--Three Kingdoms of Korea, in the tradition of naming new states after historic states. The significance of the declaration of an Empire, in the Korean understanding of the situation was to declare Koreas independence and equality with China and Japan. Historically, the usage of Emperor was reserved for the Chinese Emperor, the Son of Heaven. Some Korean dynasties had acknowledged themselves as vassals of the Chinese, and had refrained from ever declaring their equality with China. When Japan experienced the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese Emperor was declared the source of sovereignty in the Japanese government. The Japanese government sent news of the Meiji Restoration, the Korean government refused to acknowledge the change. Not only did it challenge the supremacy of the Chinese Emperor as the suzerains of Korea but it also made Japan address Korea as an equal, rather then as a Chinese subservient. The change in title for Korea to Empire only became possible after the Sino-Japanese war. The Gwangmu reform was aimed at modernizing and westernizing Korea as a late starter in the industrial revolution. However, Gwangmu Reform was not a radical because of foreign liabilities, suppression of democracy, and various other factors. As a result, Korea was suppressed by Japan, China, and Russia.

Hamnyeongjeon Hall, sleeping residence of Gojong at Deoksugung Palace, Seoul, South Korea
Hamnyeongjeon Hall was the sleeping residence of King Gojong when he moved from the Russian Legation back to Deoksugung Palace (Gyeongugung) in 1897. Gojong also died at this location in 1919 at the age of 66. In 1904, the hall was destroyed by fire. It was rebuilt that same year.

Deoksugung, also known as Gyeongun-gung, Deoksugung Palace, or Deoksu Palace, is a walled compound of palaces in Seoul that was inhabited by members of Korea's royal family during the Joseon monarchy until the annexation of Korea by Japan in 1910. It is one of the Five Grand Palaces built by the kings of the Joseon Dynasty.[1] The buildings are of varying styles, including some of natural cryptomeria wood[citation needed]), painted wood, and stucco. Some buildings were built of stone to replicate western palatial structures.
In addition to the traditional palace buildings, there are also forested gardens, a statue of King Sejong the Great and the National Museum of Art, which holds special exhibitions. The palace is located near City Hall Station.
Deoksugung, like the other Five Grand Palaces in Seoul, was intentionally heavily destroyed during the colonial period of Korea. Currently, only one third of the structures that were standing before the occupation remain.[2]
Deoksugung Palace is special among Korean palaces. It has a modern and a western style garden and fountain. The Changing of the Royal Guard, in front of Daehanmun (Gate), is a very popular event for many visitors. The royal guard was responsible for opening and closing the palace gate during the Joseon Dynasty. Outside of the palace is a picturesque road with a stone wall.[3]
Deoksugung was originally the residence of Prince Wolsan, the older brother of King Seongjong. This residence became a royal 'palace' during the Imjin war after all of the other palaces were burned in 1592 during the Imjin wars. King Seonjo was the first Joseon king to reside at the palace. King Gwanghaegun was crowned in this palace in 1608, and renamed it Gyeongun-gung (경운궁, 慶運宮) in 1611. After the official palace was moved to the rebuilt Changdeokgung in 1618, it was used as an auxiliary palace for 270 years and was renamed Seogung (West Palace).
In 1897, after the incident when Emperor Gojong took refuge in the Russian legation, he returned to this place and named it Gyeongungung again. Expansion of the facility followed after his return. After Emperor Gojong abdicated the throne to Emperor Sunjong, he continued to live in this palace. The palace was then renamed Deoksugung, as a reference to a wish for longevity of Emperor Gojong. Emperor Gojong died in Hamnyeongjeon.

With only 12 ships remaining from Admiral Won Gyun's disastrous defeat at the Battle of Chilchonryang, Admiral Yi held the strait as a last stand battle against the Japanese Navy, who were sailing to support their land army's advance towards the Joseon capital of Hanyang (modern-day Seoul).
