Some scholars believe that this fortress was built by the locals before Seoul became the capital of Baekje kingdom, other ones point out the similarity with the fortress town in China and Goguryeo (northern Korean kingdom). Now the rampart surrounds a chaotic town : taller modern tower residences, lower traditional houses, active market and offices. Designated as No. 11 of National Historic Site
