Once a derelict space and an eyesore, this facility was reborn as an art and cultural space. The building preserves its 50-year history with its old facade and houses an area dedicated to young artists in its interior, thus reborn as a space where the old coexist with the new. Suchang Youth Mansion, named so as a retro-style throwback to the old days when such English loanwords were not as common as today, opened its doors in December 2017. Today, it functions as a space for Daegu’s young artists. The first floor of Building A houses a cafe, while the second floor houses the art and cultural space, in which visitors can get a glimpse into Daegu’s unique identity through works of art, including those created by young artists of the region.

Seomun Market opened in its current location in the 1920s after reclaiming the Cheonhwangdangji Reservoir, but it has a much longer history. In the Joseon dynasty, Seomun Market was one of three major markets in the nation. It was called Seomun Market because it was located on the west side of the Daegu Fortress. Despite relocating, the alleyways of the original market still feature names of the items available there, such as Hongdukkae Pancake and Chicken Pancake Alley. Textile-related goods are the main products available now, but they also offer a little bit of everything else, including silk goods, dry goods, undershirts, crafts, dishes, clothes, and dried seafood.
