These drawings — floor plans, sections, and elevations — were designed around 1930 by the Korean architect Kim Sun-ha, and stand comparison without embarrassment even against present-day architectural drawings. It was only from the late 1920s that buildings designed by Korean architects during the Japanese colonial period began to be realised. These drawings are not only the earliest set of architectural drawings produced in the provinces during the Japanese colonial period, but, given that it remains uncertain whether our ancestors used design drawings when constructing traditional Korean buildings, they are judged to be works of very great significance.
