[Gyeongsangbuk-do] Guryongpo Japanese House Street (구룡포 일본인 가옥거리)

Hello! Here is the detailed information for ‘Guryongpo Japanese House Street (구룡포 일본인 가옥거리)’.

💡 Overview

Guryongpo Japanese House Street is where the Japanese who came to Joseon lived after the Joseon-Japan Trade Treaty was signed between Joseon and Japan in 1883. Over time, the Japanese grew power over the fishing industry in the East Sea while restricting Joseon’s fishing rights. To remember the past pains and events, the city of Pohang preserved 47 wooden Japanese-style houses from the time and named the area “Guryongpo Japanese House Street.” It is now a tourist attraction where people can see the traces of Japanese lifestyle during the Joseon period and how the poeple of Joeseon braced the Japanese colonial period. It also attracts many K-drama fans as the area served as the main filming location of the drama “When the Camellia Blooms (2019).”  The scenery seen from the park steps received a Korea Landscape Award because of the fishing village, which can be seen at a glance, revealing the daily life of the common people.
