Who drinks a cup of coffee at first?

As you know, many people drink lots of cup of coffee at these times

Some people are addicted caffeine by drinking coffee

I do not mean to speak an addiction or medical cures

 

           The answer is an emperor Gojong.

He was born in 1863.during around 2000 years, the joseon had never opened

A country to foreign intercourse

On the other hand, Japan accepts foreign culture and goods immediately

The Gojong drunk a cup of coffee to reduce stress and refresh his sprit.

 

He felt that coffee could work it out

Sometimes he tried to add some milk into coffee, but He stop a pouring of milk immediately

Because he felt lots of tannin in his mouth

He used to enjoy the coffee in Jeong Kwan Heon

According to the literary, JeongKwanHeon was built by Russian architect

The architect considered to design both western style and oriental 

I think that, the emperor drunk a cup of coffee to dismiss that

he lost power to govern this country from his mind.
