Standing at an impressive height of 177.8 cm, these wooden posts were designed to protect roads from evil spirits, serving as powerful guardians against malevolent forces. The craftsmanship displayed in this artwork is truly remarkable. Each post features painted and carved heads with expressive faces, exuding a sense of both power and mystique. The attention to detail is evident in every stroke and chisel mark, showcasing the skill and dedication of the Korean artisans who brought these protective figures to life. Adding further depth to the composition, calligraphy script adorns each post, infusing them with symbolic meaning and spiritual significance.
