Well, I can tell you it’s at 37.573015, 126.963586, just off of Sajik-ro, between Dongnimmun and Gyeongbokgung Stations on Line 3. According to Naver Maps, it’s 딜쿠샤.

And as a followup, some google work and discussion with some TA’s, I have found out that it’s Albert Taylor’s house, a journalist from the Japanese colonial era.
