Naju Choe Seok-gi House

This house was built by Choe Sun-hwan, who held the minor office of chambong, in the late Korean Empire period, and has been passed down for four generations. The main building was built by Choe Sun-hwan in the late Korean Empire period, while the remaining buildings were built during the Japanese colonial period. The main building has a straight-line floor plan measuring seven kan across the front and one kan deep. Its roof is a hip-and-gable roof, which forms the shape of the character 八 (eight) when viewed from the side. The gate quarters measure four kan across the front and have the same hip-and-gable roof as the main building. The house is notable for its chimneys, which extend out at length to the left and right of the inner courtyard, and it provides valuable material for studying the form of traditional houses in the Naju region in the early 20th century.
