Hello, there are many Chinese restaurants across from Busan Station, the high-speed train that runs between Busan and Seoul.Shanghai StreetThere are many points of interest such as these, but in one corner there is the modern building of Baekje Hospital, which opened in 1922 as Busan's first modern hospital. On the first floor of this building is the design cafe Brown Hands Baekje, which was opened by the interior design brand Brown Hands on March 1, 2016.

The former Baekje Hospital, which is registered as Korea's Modern Cultural Heritage Site No. 645, closed in 1932 and was subsequently used as a Chinese restaurant, an officer's barracks for the Japanese Akatsuki Unit, the Busan Security Force office, the temporary Republic of China consulate, and the Shinsegae wedding hall. A fire in 1972 reduced the five-story building to four stories, and it remains as it is today.

The former Baekje Hospital, which has lived through Korea's turbulent modern times since the Japanese colonial period, is now a popular cafe among young people.
