This pavillion was built
by Nuhadang Kim Song-won in King Myongjong's
15th year (1560) in memory of Sokch'on
Im Eok-Ryong. Its structure
is 2 kan front, 2 kan side with 8 jak roof. It is known that he
had built another pavilion next to Shikyongjung and named it after his pen name, but it does not remain
now.
Songgang Jeong
Chol wrote 'Songsanpyolgok' in this beautiful scenery of
the Songsan area, where Shikyongjong, Hwanbyokdang, and Songgangjong
are all located. Here he met his great teachers of renowned Confucian
scholars such as Myonangjong Song Sun, Haso Kim In-hu, Kobong Ki
Tae-sung, and others. Also, this is the place where he learned
how to write poetry while socializing with other writers such as
Chebong Ko Kyong-myong, Okbong Paek Kwang-hun, and Kwibong Song
Ik-pil. Other writings left by Songgang include 20 songs of Shikyongjong, 10 mixed
songs of Shikyongjung, 1 song of Hadangyajwa, 1 song of Ch'ahwanbyokdangun,
4 mixed songs of Nuhadang, and many other poems and songs.
