Cheong Wa Dae, or the Blue House, was often used as a metonym for the Presidential Secretariat due to its office being located there. This continued until President Yoon Suk Yeol moved the office and residency of the President out of the Blue House in May 2022, placing it instead at the Ministry of National Defense Building in Yongsan. Later, President Lee Jae-myung returned its office and residency back to Blue House on December 2025.
