  We report on the H2O maser distributions around IRAS 22480+6002 (=IRC+60370)
observed with the Japanese VLBI Network (JVN) at three epochs spanning 2
months. This object was identified as a K-type supergiant in 1970s, which was
unusual as a stellar maser source. The spectrum of H2O masers consists of 5
peaks separated roughly equally by a few km/s each. The H2O masers were
spatially resolved into more than 15 features, which spread about 50 mas along
the east--west direction. However, no correlation was found between the proper
motion vectors and their spatial distributions; the velocity field of the
envelope seems random. A statistical parallax method applied to the observed
proper-motion data set gives a distance of 1.0+-0.4 kpc for this object, that
is considerably smaller than previously thought. The distance indicates that
this is an evolved star with L~5800 Lsun. This star shows radio, infrared, and
optical characteristics quite similar to those of the population II post-AGB
stars such as RV Tau variables.
