In 1910, Japan formally annexed the Korean Peninsula for colonial rule, and since then, the Korean people have launched a continuous anti-Japanese independence movement. After the outbreak of the "March 1st Movement", Korean volunteers began to go into exile in large numbers, most of them came to China across the water, and established a Korean provisional government in Shanghai in 1919.

In 1932, the 13-year-old Provisional Government was unable to gain a foothold in Shanghai, and in the same year moved to the Qingtai Second Hostel in Hangzhou, where a temporary office was set up in Room 32.

When it comes to the ancient building complex of Shikumen in Hangzhou, many people's first reaction will think of Sixinfang, and now everyone calls "Sixinfang" mostly refers to a large area consisting of three lanes including Sixinfang, Xuanshouli and Chengdri, as well as 8 villas including Liexian Hall.

Si Xin Fang runs from the middle of Xueshi Road in the south to Chengdri in the north, and its location has been located in the center of the city since the Sui Dynasty. During the Qing Dynasty, it was Fuchang Lane in the garrison camp.

At the beginning of the Republic of China, the government demolished the city, and all its barracks were demolished and transformed into new commercial areas. Chen Xingong, a large silk merchant, bought the location of the current Longxiang Bridge Clothing City and built two rows of the most fashionable Shikumen buildings of the moment, named Sixinfang.
