Wajeon had 28 kan of Jungjeon which was the same size as Naejeon. There were also ancillary buildings such as Ru, Chung, Gogan, Daemun including 12 kan of Naehaeng-Gakbang.
Although the building was preserved until the Japanese colonial period, only the site remains and it is uncertain when Hanggungji was ruined.
