Sinheung-dong Japanese-style House (Hirotsu House) photo

Sinheung-dong Japanese-style House is a two-story wooden home built during the Japanese colonial era, showing what the living space of the Japanese merchant class in Gunsan looked like at the time. It is designated as a National Registered Cultural Heritage and managed by the city.

Visitor numbers grew as it became known as a filming location for movies and TV dramas, and it is enjoyable to look over the building itself while exploring the garden and interior structure. The surrounding area is a quiet residential neighborhood, making it pleasant for a slow walk through the alleys.
