Sujeongdang Hall, Hadong

Sujeongdang Hall, commonly known as Okdongseowon Confucian Academy, enshrines Suudang as its principal figure, and his historical significance and value are highly regarded. The hall is a piece of modern traditional architecture that embodies efforts at independent cultural continuity, showing active building activity aimed at promoting the national spirit even amid the turmoil of the Japanese colonial period; its spatial composition also follows the regular layout of lecture hall in front and shrine to the rear (jeonhakhumyo), giving it a well-defined sense of spatial organisation.
