Sujoldang is the head house of the Hagye branch of the Jinseong Yi clan, located at 1-9 Hagye-gil, Dosan-myeon, Andong, Gyeongbuk. It is a historic house built in the early 17th century by Dongam Yi Yeong-do, a grandson of Toegye Yi Hwang, when he established a separate household. Its name derives from the pen name of his eldest son, Sujoldang Yi Gi. With its traditional hanok composition - main quarters, pavilion, shrine, and ritual house - intact, it was designated Gyeongsangbuk-do Folklore Cultural Property No. 130 in 2003. Although it was relocated to its current site due to the construction of Andong Dam in 1975, the original bush-clover ridge beams remain, conveying the grand structure of the time of its construction.
Today Sujoldang operates as a detached hanok stay. Combining the main quarters, an annex, and a pavilion, it can accommodate up to about 10 guests, and each ondol room is equipped with a private bathroom and heating and cooling for year-round stays. Guests can experience the quiet daily life of a scholar's house in the inner quarters where the wide wooden floor and stone-wall paths come together, and on request can also enjoy historic-house commentary, a walk to Toegye's grave, and traditional tea-ceremony programs. Reservations and inquiries are available 24 hours via the official website or 010-6265-0264.
Sujoldang is a representative Andong historic-house stay where one can feel, in a single place, the architectural beauty layered over 400 years and the spirit of Toegye's descendants, loved as a base for traditional-culture travel linking UNESCO World Heritage sites such as Dosan Seowon and Hahoe Village.
