This is a replica of the Sun and constellations painted on the underside of the southwestern, southeastern, and northeastern sides of the triangular stone on the first base of the triangular support, corresponding to the fourth base of the ceiling support in the burial chamber of the Seongchong Tomb. The Sun is painted as a red circle with feeler-shaped spiral patterns on its circumference, though the painting fails to describe a perfect circle.
