House of Lee Young-choon (이영춘가옥)

House of Lee Young-choon in Gunsan is a beautifully preserved early-20th-century Western-style residence built in 1922 for a Western-educated Korean physician who pioneered tuberculosis research in Korea. The two-story brick house combines Western architectural elements (gabled roof, brick walls, arched windows) with Korean spatial logic in the interior, and is one of the most intact examples of colonial-era Western residential architecture in the country. Now a public museum, the house preserves Dr. Lee's original consultation room, library, and family living spaces, with bilingual panels covering both his medical contribution and the building's hybrid architectural significance.
