This is a replica of the mural on the ceiling in the burial chamber of Gangseodaemyo Tomb. Each corner of the ceiling stones had full-blossomed lotus petals, with a yellow dragon placed at the center. On the triangular point at the bottom of a triangular support of the second tier are drawings of full-blown lotus petals to which honeysuckle leaves were added. At the bottom of the triangular support of the first tier lay two legendary birds, flocking while facing each other.
