Korea's "Jibokjae" is a pavilion located within Gyeongbokgung Palace, meaning "gathering treasures as precious as jade." The main building was used as King Gojong's study and also served as a place to enshrine royal portraits or receive foreign envoys.

Grenada's "Merryshow House" was built by Theophilus Albert Merryshow (1887?1958), a West Indies politician, journalist, and patron of the arts. This place holds significance as the foundation where all movements for political and economic autonomy and federalism in Grenada began.

Meanwhile, Grenada is an island nation located at the southernmost point between the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, celebrating the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations with Korea this year.
