House of Sharing

The House of Sharing (Korean: 나눔의 집, Nanum-ui jib) is a nursing home for living comfort women in Seoul, South Korea.

The House of Sharing was founded in June 1992 through funds raised by Buddhist organizations and various socio-civic groups.

The original location was a dilapidated, more traditional Korean-style rental house in Hyehwa-dong in Seoul.

The 'comfort women' were relocated to the new building located in Gwangju, Gyeonggi, on the outskirts of Seoul, in February 1996.
