'Suaedang Traditional House was built by Ryu Jin-geol, also known by his pen-name of Suae, in 1939. This hanok-style house consists of three buildings that measure 29-kan (a traditional measurement that corresponds to the space between two columns) in total.
The main room, or jeongchim (7-kan at front and 2-kan at sides), has a half-hipped roof, and forms a‘ㄱ’-shape with the storeroom (10-kan at front), which also has a half-hipped roof. Originally located at 612 Sugok-dong, Andong-si, the house was relocated from a slight slope to a flat piece of land due to the construction of Imha Dam in 1987. Consequently, the Jeongchim was rebuilt at a lower level than before.
The Suaedang was renovated by modernizing the old-style facilities including the kitchen, toilets, and washroom without changing their external features, while the rooms and daecheongmaru (main floored room) were decorated with red clay and natural paint. Suaedang, with its beautiful panoramic view of the lake, was designated as Gyeongsangbuk-do Cultural Property No. 56.

“Andonog Hahoe Yangjindang,” located in the Hahoe Folk Village, is Treasure No 306 and the residence of a family with the surname Pungsan Ryu. A tablet read Ipam Antique House, named after Ipam Ryu Jung Yeong (1515 - 1573), is hung on the entrance. Yangjindang is named after the nickname of Ryu Yeong (1687 - 1761), the sixth generation of Gyeongam Ryu Un Ryong, son of Ipam. The name means “nourishing well one's own nature.” The Hanok stands over the entrance, with a well-polished floor that is grand yet friendly. One of the characteristics of the house is that it includes Sarangcha or detached building, which reflects the architecture from the Goryeo period, and Anchae or main building in the architecture style from the Joseon period.
It is expected that such co-existence was made possible because of the repairs done after Imjin War. How fortiunate that the antique house has been preserved until now! The well-tended garden shows the commitment of the descendants to maintaining the space. Rooms are rather simple compared to the grand exterior of the house. Traditional mother-of-pearl furniture, tableware in the cupboard, randomly ceramics placed draw attention. The house resembles a small folk museum. Why not enjoy some traditional folk games during your stay? There is a variety of play tools such as yut, tuho, jegi, tops, and kites. Experience programs such as gayangju brewing, rice cake and traditional dessert making, and flower tea are conducted by the first daughter-in-law of the house, depending on the season.
