There are over 800 traditional Korean hanok houses. While the rest of the city has been industri- alized, Hanok Village retains its historical charms and traditions. Jeonju Hanok Village is especially beautiful for its unique roof edges, which are slightly raised to the sky. Hanok houses are generally divided into two sections, Anchae and Sarangchae. Sarangchae is where the men dwelt, and is referred to as the Seonbi room. Because men and women had to remain separate, Anchae is situated deep inside the house so that it is secretive and quiet. Another trait of hanok is that all the houses are heated with ondol, a unique sub-floor heating system. Since Koreans enjoy sitting, eating, and sleeping on the floor, it needs to remain heated. A part of the hanok has been set aside so that tourists can experience traditional Korean life, called Hanok Life Experience Hall. You can enter the rooms to experience the warm floor first-hand. An advantage of this system is that it is warm in the winter and cool in the summer. The food provided is very traditional, which adds to the traditional ambience. At Jeonju Hanok Village, visitors can enjoy traditional Korean life and traditional dishes, like bibimbap, the most well known dish from the Jeonju region. - 4 - 전주소리문화관 Jeonju sound culture center Jeonju Sori* Culture Center is established to preserve and promote the local culture of Pansori. * ‘sori’ literally means ‘sound’ in Korean, but also can mean Pansori, a genre of traditional Korean music consisting of a long solo epic song. This traditional Korean building, resembling the Korean letter ‘ㄷ,’ hosts an exhibition hall on the history of Pansori and Gukchang (Pansori Master) Oh Jeong-suk Memorial. The center runs educational programs on Pansori and stages regular performances. - 5 - 경기전 Gyeonggijeon Shrine - 6 - Historic Site No. 339, Gyeonggijeon Shrine was erected in 1410 and holds the portrait of King Tae-jo, the founder of the Joseon Dynasty. The king and his wife’s mortuary tablets are enshrined here at Jogyeong Shrine. The structure was partially destroyed during the Imjin War (1592-1598), and the existing structure was remodeled in 1614. Inside Gyeonggijeon, the portraits of King Tae-jo and other successive kings, such as Sun-jong, Cheol-jong, Yeong-jo and many others, can be found on display. The carriage used to move the mortuary tablets as well as transport dignitaries. Individual chair-like carriages are also on display. - 7 - 판소리 Pansori epic chant Pansori epic chant is a genre, in which a singer and a drummer weave a musical story together. Pansori, which is performed with songs, words, and gestures, matched with a rhythm, has been sung and handed down by lower class entertainers, called ‘Gwangdae (clown)’. Singing can go on maximum 8 hours. Pansori is a compound word of ‘Pan’, a place where many people gather, and ‘ sori’, a song. Pansori, the essence of Korean culture that shares history and human feelings; joy, anger, sorrow, and pleasure, got acknowledgement on its creativity and excellence worldwide and was designated as the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2003. - 8 - 국립무형문화유산원 National Intangible Heritage Center Unlike material cultural heritage, intangible cultural heritage (ICH) is ‘living heritage’, which is practiced and passed down by humans throughout history. The National Intangible Heritage Center (NIHC) is the first complex administrative institution for the safeguarding and transmission of Korean ICH, and it fosters ICH through research, archiving, exhibitions, performances, educational programs, support for the Masters of ICH, and extension of the traditional crafts market. NIHC comprises various facilities, such as permanent/special exhibition galleries, performance halls, archives, international conference rooms, and learning spaces. NIHC is a hub of Korean ICH and the core of international networks of ICH. NIHC actively cooperates with Asian-Pacific nations, as well as the nations of Africa, Europe, and America. - 9 - 처용무 공연 Cheoyongmu Performance *History/origin of Cheoyongmu: Cheoyong-mu is said to have originated in the late period of Silla dynasty. According to a historical record, at the time of King Heongang who ruled from 875 to 886, Cheoyong is described as a son of Dragon-king of the East Sea. There have been various interpretations on the identity of Cheoy- ong among scholars. One of the most plausible opinion is that he was a shaman, which is confirmed in the mystic song describing the exorcising ability of Cheoyong. According to it, he drove away the evil spirit who seduced his wife not by force but a persuasive song and gentle attitude. From that time on, his mask, song and dance came to be used as the magical means to ward off evils and the dance has been performed in the national exorcising ritual ( Narye )as well as some other festive occasions. In 15th century of Chosun dynasty, it was changed from solo dance to five men's dance influenced by the Taoistic concept of Yin-Yang and Five Elements. During Chosun dynasty, it became more stylized as it was adopted as a court dance. Cheoyong-mu was designated as Korean Important Intangible Cultural Property No. 39 in 1971. The artistic excellence of Cheoyong-mu is proved in its dynamic, moderate style and its varied movement patterns such as confrontation, circle, square, pentagon and procession. In spite of its magical intention, Cheoyong-mu uses highly virtuous masks and controlled movements instead of threatening ones. Elegant court music is accompanied with the dance to heighten the ceremoni- ous, ritualistic mood. - 10 - * Costumes used in the Cheoyongmu: The dance is performed by five men clad in white, blue, black, red and yellow to represent the four cardinal directions and the center. They wear the light wine-colored mask of the man-god, with white teeth, tin earrings with a necklace of lead beads, and a black hat decorated with two peony blossoms and seven peaches to ward off evil and invite auspicious energy. The dancers move with stateliness and vigour through a variety of styles and tempos of music, punctuated by various lyrical song recitations. Part of a greater folk mythology surrounding Cheoyong, including the belief that his image carved on the gate of a house would repel smallpox and other ills, Cheoy- ongmu also embodies the philosophy of Confucianism, particularly the Theory of the Five Elements. The creation of the Cheoyong masks also provides a valuable opportunity for tradition- al craftsmanship. - 11 - * Music involved in the Cheoyongmu: The musical instrument used in this dance includes a six stringed zither, dulcimer, two stringed fiddle, horizontal flute, conical oboe, and the glass drum. To match the movement qualities of the Cheoyongmu. The music is fairly slow and stately. It is created by traditional Korean drums, string instruments and wind instruments. This helps to create the feeling of grand importance of the dancers and gives significance to their movement. Throughout the performance the dancers movements directly relate to the structure of the accompanying music. - 12 - Day 2 Exploring the UNESCO World Heritage Baekje Historic Areas - 13 - 백제역사유적지구 Baekje Historic Areas Baekje is one of the ancient countries that existed on the Korean Peninsula from 18 BCE to 660 CE. Located in the mountainous, mid-western region of the Republic of Korea, the Baekje Historic Areas comprise a series of eight archaeological sites, including the Gongsanseong Fortress and royal tombs at Songsan-ri in Gongju, the Busosanseong fortress and Gwanbuk-ri administrative buildings, the Jeongnimsa Temple, the royal tombs in Neungsan-ri and the Naseong city wall in Buyeo, the royal palace at Wanggung-ri, and the Mireuksa Temple in Iksan. These properties represent the historical tracts of relationships among the west-Asian ancient kingdoms of Korea, China, and Japan from the 5th to 7th century and conclusively stand for both architectural devel- opment and the spread of Buddhism. Through these carefully-maintained properties, the reputation of its capital, Buddhist temples, ancient tombs, architecture, and stone pagodas are proud reminders of the culture, religion, and aesthetics of the ancient kingdom of Baekje. Acknowledged as a pivotal element of the ancient city, fortress, palace site, city wall, royal tomb, Buddhist temples represent the outstanding values of Baekje Historic Areas’ heritage. Such properties have conserved the crucial evidence of ancient architectural factors and technological progression. The fortress, city walls, mountainous region of the royal tomb, and location of traffic routes are included in both applied heritage and buffer zones.

The development of night tourism is one of the crucial means to enrich and prosper the night-time economy. Recently, as a popular topic of sustainable development, night tourism has received extensive attention. However, little attention has been paid to night tourism, especially from the emotional perspective of tourists. Furthermore, discussions on how and why tourists become interested in night tourism are still lacking. To fill the research gap, based on the theory of experience economy, we used the concept of lovemarks to explore the influence of tourists’ tourism experience and lovemarks on their brand satisfaction and brand loyalty. A self-administered questionnaire was completed by 487 tourists of “Cultural Heritage Night”, a night tourism brand in South Korea. The results indicate that tourists’ entertainment and educational experience significantly influence their lovemarks (both of brand love and respect), and esthetic experience only significantly influences brand respect.

  • Jeonju Is a Historic City in Korea
    SUSTAINABLE CITY DEVELOPMENT THROUGH TRADITIONAL CULTURE REVITALIZATION 1. Context Jeonju is a historic city in Korea. As the city where government agencies were located during the Joseon Dynasty, Jeonju became the center of politics, economic, and culture power of the Jeolla area. After experiencing government-led economic development and consequent urbanization, Jeonju has grown into a large city with over 650,000 people. 1 However, Jeonju was relatively alienated from the rapid industrialization and economic growth of country. It needed an economic drive through which to promote local development. Korea’s adoption of the “local autonomy” system in the 1990s, led local governments to pursue a new set of local development policies. Jeonju, facing a lack of industrial infrastructure, prioritized policies based on traditional cultural resources a. A series of events led to Jeonju’s implementation of the Traditional Culture City Project. In 1977, Jeonju designated an area with a heavy concentration of traditional buildings as the Traditional Architecture Preservation Zone (Jeonju Hanok Village). The construction limitation that came with the designation resulted in many residents leaving the. Residents began to demand the removal of the Traditional Architecture Preservation Zone designation, which was finally removed in 1995. From then, the area began to attract new modern buildings. Local, cultural, and artistic experts raised the need to preserve traditional culture and demanded the re-designation of the area as a preservation zone. Property rights of residents collided with the need to preserve traditional culture, leading to serious discussions about policies on traditional culture within the local community and led to a series of policies that protected residents’ property rights while preserving traditional buildings.

Today’s landscape in the discipline of printmaking/print media, both in its message and its production, has rapidly changed from its roots in practical communication through traditional fine arts-based processes to current newer technology and theoretical debates. These new forms are shifting within global cultures at a rapid pace. Korea has its own unique, rich history and traditions that pave the way toward new technological developments while continuing to embrace and reinforce traditional artisan values and methodologies. This class will explore the history of printing technology, developed in Korea from the seventh through the fourteenth century A.D., and ranging from the world’s oldest printed text, The Great Dharani Sutra, to the latest cutting-edge technology, including laser cutting. Classes will include field trips to museums and galleries, hands-on workshops at a traditional Korean paper museum (hanji), and interactions with local visiting artists, master printmakers, papermakers and traditional artisans. Through various class activities, excursions, and cultural visits students will be exposed to diverse and multi-regional art practices that will broaden their perspectives and increase their understanding not only in the field of print media but in the larger contemporary visual culture. This program will help stimulate and inspire our UCSC art major students to prepare their artistic careers and advance their possibilities for study opportunities internationally.

  • Gwangdaejeon in Jeonju, an Innovative Strategy in Pansori Popularization
    EXPLORING A TRADITION IDENTITY: GWANGDAEJEON IN JEONJU, AN INNOVATIVE STRATEGY IN PANSORI POPULARIZATION A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI‘I AT MĀNOA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN MUSIC AUGUST 2017 By Hae In Lee Thesis Committee: Byong Won Lee, Chairperson Frederick Lau Young-A Park ABSTRACT Gwangdaejeon (Battle of the Clowns) was a local North Jeolla province television show that premiered in 2012 and ended in 2015, with later seasons being broadcast throughout Korea. This program’s motto was to revive the traditional pansori stage which thrived around Jeonju, the state capital of the North Jeolla province. The show was filmed in hanok (traditional Korean house) village, a historical recreation of a traditional house town in Jeonju. Gwangdaejeon was a competition for the master pansori singers, myeongchang. Gwangdaejeon follows the structure of reality popular song competition programs, which are already familiar to the public. These programs are categorized into two types: amateur and professional competitions. The former centers on auditions for novices who want to become stars, for example, Superstar K. The latter are competitions, such as I am a Singer, exclusively feature professional experts. Gwangdaejeon was similar to I am a Singer, but for myeongchang. This thesis explores the ways a television show contributes to the promotion of Korean traditional music. While Korean pop culture, such as K-pop and TV dramas, are gaining huge popularity all over the world, pansori, an example of Korean traditional vocal music, is disregarded by the majority of Koreans even though it has cultural value.
