Carolina Hall of Paiwha School, Seoul

Built in 1915 as a two-storey building, it was extended in 1922 with the addition of a third floor and a fourth (attic) floor, bringing it to its present four-storey scale. Originally constructed as a school building, it is now used as a science hall. Its distinctive interior layout places entrances and stairways at the front and rear, with classrooms arranged on either side of them; this arrangement is directly reflected in the building's elevation and forms a defining feature of its exterior appearance. The registered name, Carolina Hall of Paiwha School, Seoul, carries forward 'Carolina Hakdang', the name used for Paiwha School in 1898.
