to live idyllic and focuses of society of the seonbi.

 This 5 kan house is divided into two functional areas: Anchae (main house)
and Sarangchae (male's quarter), which surrounded the court.
Anchae has Anbang (lady's quarter), kitchen, servant's quarter and storage room.

Can you see the pole / hook on the top left corner?

These doors are designed to be separated, and you can hang them 

using the hook (see the photo here). 

It gives better air ventilation especially in hot summer.
