About

Lee Sang-hwa & Seo Sang-don's Old Houses, the core attractions of the Daegu Modern Culture Alley Tour, are historical spaces where you can catch a glimpse of the resistance spirit during the Japanese colonial period. Here, the old house where the national poet Lee Sang-hwa spent the last years of his life and the old house of Mr. Seo Sang-don, who led the National Debt Repayment Movement, are located side by side.

Preserved through the efforts of citizens amidst the crisis of urban development, Lee Sang-hwa's Old House allows you to feel his patriotic spirit through the poet's relics and the poetry monument of his representative work, 'Does Spring Come to Stolen Fields'. Right next to it, at Seo Sang-don's Old House, you can follow the traces of his frugal lifestyle and the National Debt Repayment Movement. Along with the two old houses, look around the 'Modern Culture Experience Center Gesanyega', which introduces the activities of modern artists, and experience the depth of Daegu's modern history.
