Based on paintings made before the Japanese invasions of Korea, it is presumed that in the early Joseon Dynasty it was a square-shaped gate tower with a rectangular entrance.
Rebuilt by Daewongun at the end of the Joseon Dynasty

The Government General Building behind Gwanghwamun is almost completed.

Destroyed due to the bombing of the Korean War on 6.25, with only the stonework remaining.

The stone part makes the most of existing remaining materials.
70s~90s
After the demolition of the Government General Building in 1996
Demolition began at the end of 2006 to correct the twisted axis.
There was also a restoration plan at this time for Woldae, but it was canceled due to the Seoul Metropolitan Government's actions due to traffic congestion issues.

In 2023, restoration will be completed, including the new signboard in line with historical research and the woldae, which were canceled during the restoration in 2006.
