This is the valuable treasure for making the genealogy of Korean stone-made pagodas, along with the stone pagoda of Mireuksa temple site.As far as the structure of this stone pagoda is concerned, the foundation stones were laid and the stylobate was built on them. On the stylobate, five-story pagoda stands and the upper parts are on the top of structure. For the foundation stones, they set up the several stones and laid the two-layer stylobate on those stones and constructed the flat stone on stylobate.The flat stone is low, with the corner pillar on the surface of both sides and a flat stone having 8 plate is thick. Each story of pagoda body is same in the construction form. Due to the relatively large size of the lower part of body, it consists of 12 plates and have the corner pillar at 4 corners. And, 2 plate stones are stuck each space between two points.The second and third story are built with 4 layers, fourth one built with 2 layers and fifth story built with 1 layer. As the higher than second story pagoda body is drastically decrease in the height compared with the lower part, the corner pillar is also shorter. However, the width of corner pillar is larger than that of the pagoda body. In each story, plates for raindrops and prop are made of separate stones and framed with several plate stones, which indicate the modified form of wooden building. If seeing this structure is made up of 149 stones, we can guess the pagoda has a similar structure to a wooden building. However, this structure, in detailed parts, shows the sophisticated and creative moulding and overall, looks like sublime, lucid and refined one, shedding off the blind imitation of wooden formality. Because the fact is engraved on this structure in chinese handwriting style that Chinese general Sojeongbang conquered Baekje, it is also called as "Pyeongjetap" meaning celebrating tower on destroying Baekje.

“Baudeogi ; The pioneer of Korea’s modern popular culture”
'Baudeogi' is a woman who, after becoming the Kkoktusoe or Chief of Namsadang as a woman in the latter part of the Joseon Dynasty for the first time in the nation, has led the Namsadang troupe.

Baudeogi enjoyed full popularity through her unique talents, promoted Namsadang troupe to a level of the nation’s best public performance group, while she remained as the mother of entertainment and a performance. Baudeogi even now teaches us the value of the Namsadang culture as a woman who had glorified Joseon Dynasty, providing a ability to bring Namsadang performance to a world-level culture of Korea.
