Modern Korean-style House in Dongmun-ri, Taean

Built in 1930 at the centre of the former Taean-eupseong (the walled town of Taean), this modern-era hanok is a rare surviving example of modern heritage in the area and remains in good condition. It comprises four buildings in all — the main quarters (anchae), the detached men's quarters (sarangchae), the gate house (daemungan-chae), and a storehouse doubling as a toilet — and it exemplifies the construction techniques of the modern hanok, in which floor plans, room layouts and spatial structure changed as traditional house forms absorbed modern lifestyles and residential functions.
