Korean Palace Gatekeeper Mousepad – A Guardian for Your Desk

Bring the historical essence of Joseon-era palace guards to your workspace with the Korean Palace Gatekeeper Mousepad. Inspired by the uniforms, weapons, and ceremonial objects of the Suwonjang (Gatekeepers) who protected the royal palaces, this mousepad adds a touch of tradition and history to your desk.

Your Personal Desk Guardian

The Suwonjang Guard Changing Ceremony is a renowned cultural event that represents the royal security traditions of the Joseon Dynasty. Based on historical records from the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty (Yejo 1st year, 1469), the ritual has been reconstructed using authentic uniforms and weapons from the era. Now, this rich heritage is beautifully captured in a functional and stylish desk accessory.

Symbolism and Design

1. The Gatekeeper – Guardian of the Palace

The Suwonjang (Gatekeeper) was a high-ranking official (4th rank or higher) responsible for guarding the palace gates. He carried a royal command baton (Deungchae) as a symbol of authority.

The character design emphasizes a long beard and thick eyebrows, portraying an elder figure with wisdom and dignity.

2. The Protective Shield – Power of the Soldiers

Among the palace guards, strong warriors known as Daejol (Elite Guards) were selected for their physical strength. They wielded shields and spears to protect the palace gates.

The Daejol character is 20% larger than other characters, highlighting their strength and imposing presence.

3. Cheongryonggi (Blue Dragon Flag) – Symbol of Command

One of the military command banners, the Cheongryonggi was positioned on the left side of the army to lead left-wing forces.

Designed with a blue background, featuring a majestic blue dragon surrounded by clouds in blue, red, yellow, and white.

4. Baekhoggi (White Tiger Flag) – Authority of the Right-Wing Army

The Baekhoggi was another command flag, positioned on the right side of the army to lead right-wing forces.

It showcases a white-winged tiger, symbolizing the protection of the western direction.
