This is a replica of the mural made on the ceiling and the ceiling support in the front chamber of the Ssangyeongchong Tomb. The triangular shape of stronger force portrayed at the bottom of the ceiling support is similar to the triangular flame patterns portrayed in the front chamber of the Gamsinchong Tomb. Feeler-shaped lines are shown on two sides of the lotus buds, presumably to indicate auspiciousness.
