  • Outdoor statue located in Gwanghwamun Square, central Seoul.
  • Open at all times (상시 개방), no closed days.

  • Indoor/outdoor and rain-safe attributes are not specified in the source data.
  • A ramp connects Haechi Madang to the square, useful for step-free access.

Based on place_type (attraction), operating.open_hours_raw ('상시 개방'), operating.parking_available, and short_summary_ko describing an outdoor statue in Gwanghwamun Square. experience_attributes.indoor_outdoor and rain_safe are null, so the rain assessment is inferred from the place being an outdoor monument.
