Former Head Office of Hongsan Ramie Weavers’ Association, Buyeo

Built in the 1920s during the Japanese colonial period, this two-storey brick building represents Hongsan, which was then a collection centre for jeopo (ramie cloth). Although the exterior finish and interior spaces have been altered, the original form is relatively well preserved — including the interior wooden staircase, the second-floor wooden flooring, and the wooden roof trusses — making it possible to see the form of an office building from the Japanese colonial period. The building is valuable as evidence of the modern-era history of the Hongsan region.
