Built in the 1910s, this building was constructed as a Bible school for the children of American Southern Presbyterian missionaries. Built of grey brick, it contrasts with the stone-built missionary residences erected nearby at the time. Its formal value lies in its façade, befitting an assembly hall, and its refined brickwork, and it has historical and cultural value for preservation as a mission facility built by the American Southern Presbyterian Church as a base for missionary work along the South Jeolla coast.
