Japanese-style House in Okcheon-dong, Suncheon

This building was built during the Japanese colonial period as staff housing for a nearby canning factory. Houses of the same structure are arranged in two rows along either side of the surrounding alley, and although the interior has been partly altered to suit changing ways of life, the exterior retains its original appearance well, including the gabled roof, a pent roof (buseop-jibung) along the side, and Japanese-style plank walls made of timber boards.
