Oheon House, Jangheung

Oheon House, Jangheung is a representative example of a wealthy yangban (scholar-gentry) household in the Namdo (southern Jeolla) region, and it retains, in full, the spatial composition of its founding period — the women's quarters, the men's quarters, a shrine, a gate quarters and a pond — all in good condition, making it important for research into Namdo architectural culture. It also houses a wide range of artefacts and materials relating to folk life history, giving it high historical and folkloric value for research into the region's yangban culture and the history of rural community life.
