Masan Yangdeok Catholic Church

Together with Kyungdong Church and Bulgwangdong Cathedral, this is one of Kim Swoo-geun's three signature church projects, where he fully developed his theory of 'Primary Space, Secondary Space, Ultimate Space.' The dark-brick exterior conceals a worship hall lit from above through small openings, with a circuitous approach that slows the worshipper much like a traditional Korean temple sequence. A draw for visiting Catholics and architecture pilgrims alike — particularly relevant for World Youth Day 2027.
