Daehang-no is a area in Jongno District within Downtown Seoul.
Formerly known as Sunggyo-bang, it received its current name after the 1.1 km six lane road from Hyehwa-dong rotary to Ihwa-dong crossroad was designated as a "street of culture" on May 5, 1985.
Daehang-no is the street from the crossroad of 79–1, Jongno 5-ga, Jongno District, to Hyehwa-dong rotary, 132, Hyehwa-dong.
King Taejo relocated Sungkyunkwan to the current location on Daehang-no, after the founding of the Joseon dynasty. This gave Daehang-no its former name, "Sunggyo-bang", meaning "high respect for teaching".
During the Japanese occupation, Keijō Imperial University was founded in this area. The university was later merged with other colleges to form the prestigious Seoul National University.
In 1956, Hakrim Dabang, now considered among the oldest active cafes in South Korea and the oldest in Seoul, opened on Daehangno.[1] [2]
In March 1975, main campus of the Seoul National University was moved to Gwanak District by pressure from national government.[3] What came to the place where SNU left, was densely concentrated theatre district around Marronnier Park,[4] as the street was hub of Seoul's university culture in 1970s.[5]
