This is a Han-Ok (traditional Korean-style house) Gi-Wa-Zip (house with tile roofed). The tile and rafter was introduced from China 2,000 years ago, and the current Han-Ok style was established around the 17th century.

The traditional house of each country are optimized for the local climate.

 

Han-Ok, a traditional Korean-style house, has a huge roof with a steep slope. The height ratio is about 1:1. Also, most Han-Ok buildings are single-story buildings. Korea's annual average temperature difference is about 30~50℃ (85~125℉), which is three times bigger than London and Paris. To save on heating costs in winter and endure heavy rain or typhoons in summer, a single story building with a huge roof is a functional design.

 

Countries that have a rough climate have similar designs for traditional houses. Hall House in Scotland has a huge roof, like Han-Ok. Norway's Viking Long House implies that Northern Europe has a more harsh climate than Korea.
