In the west side of Yujibigak of Cheongryeongpo, there is an old pine tree. It's about 600 years old. At the time of the banishment of Danjong, it must have been about 80 years old. Danjong might have spent his weary time on the pine tree that's divided into 2 part from the bottom. It's called Gwaneumsong because it must have seen extremely sad banished life and heard sad stories of Danjong. 'Gwan' means view and 'eum' means hear. Its height is 30m, and its diameter is 5m.
