Cheongyang Yunnam Shakyamuni Ok

Cheongyang Yunnam Shakyamuni Ok is an old house built between the late Joseon period and the early 1900s, comprising a main hall (anchae), a men's quarters or sarangchae (the larger sarangchae), a detached wing or byeolchae (the smaller sarangchae), a servants' quarters (haengnangchae), and storehouses. Among these, the sarangchae — five bays across the front and three bays along the side, with an additional bay projecting from the front — was built by the great-great-grandfather of Yun Nam-seok. The anchae, nine bays across the front and three bays along the side, and the byeolchae, five bays across the front and three bays along the side with a half-bay veranda running around all four sides, are known to have been built in 1937 by Yun Gap-seon, Yun Nam-seok's father. The two-storey byeolchae in particular is an unusual building showing a construction technique that blends traditional Korean style with Japanese-style elements. The house is also a well-known site in the Cheongyang area, visited and stayed in by many prominent figures who came to the region in the early 1900s, and it has a long history: the flower palanquins used in the Eunsan Byeolsinje festival were made in the sarangchae. As the residence of a wealthy farming household in the Hoseo region, combining Korean house-building techniques with Japanese-style construction methods of the Japanese colonial period, it is a rare type of house that clearly reflects the characteristics and techniques of its era, and is valuable for that reason.
