It is a discipline that shows wa ys of enhancing o ur spirit and life throug h training o u 「 body and mind. Today, it has become a g lobal sport that has gained an international r eputation, and stands among the offi cial games in the Olympics. L et’s take a c loser look at the mea ning o f the word ”Tae” ”K won” ”Do.” It is composed of three parts as sho\.\ n in the Eng li sh spel ling, tho ug h it is one word in Korean. ”Tae” means ”foot‘” ”leg‘” or ”to st ep on”, ”K won” mea ns ”fi st‘” or ”fight”; and ”Do” mea ns the ”way ” or ”discipline. ” If we put these three par ts together. we can see two important concepts behind ”Tae K won Do”. First. Taek wondo is the r ight way of using Tae and Kwon ’fi sts and feet,' or all the parts o f the body that ar e r epresented by fi sts and feet. Second, it is a way to control O 「 ca l 1끼 down fig hts and k eep the peace. This concept comes from the meaning of Tae Kwon ’to put fists under contr ol’ [ or 'to step on fi sts']. Thus Taek wondo means ”the rig ht way of using all pa 「 t s of the b 。 cl y to sto p fi g hts an[ l help t o build a better and more peaceful wor ld. ” eHistory of Taekwondo Taek wondo, w hich is a natio nal mar tial art of Kor a. is one o f the proudest c ultural heritages for the Korean people. Taek wondo has been authorized as a universal sports accepted as a demonstration s p o 「 t in the 1988 Seoul Olympics and the 1992 Bar celona Olympics, and it was accepted as an offica l sport in the 2000 Olympic games in Sydney A ustr alia. Taekwoncl o has been developing w ith the 5000 year lo ng history of K or ea . being ca lled by sever al [ liffer ent names in the co 니 r se . In Korea, T aekwonclo began as a defense martial ar t called ”Subak ” or ”T aekk yon,” and developed as a wa y of tr aining body and mind in the anc ient king dom o f Koguryo. under the name of ”Sunbae.” In the Shilla per iod ‘ it had become the backbone of H war angdo that aimed at produc ing lea der s of the co 니 ntr y . Taek wondo today is similar to the marti al arts in other Oriental countries and shar es some features w ith them ‘ because in the course o f its evolution it has gained many differ ent sty les that existed in the martial ar ts of the countries surrounding Korea, like Japan and China. But Taek\.\ on do is ver y di f 「 e r e nt fro m many such O 「 i e nl a l ma 「 tial a 「 t s . First. ph ysically it is ve 「 Y [ l y namic w ith active movements that include a mirage of foot sk ills. Second, the princ iple ph ysical movements ar e in simpatico w ith that of the mind and life as a w hole. 4 Third, it possesses dynamic poses from another p er spective. Taekwondo can b e c haracterized by unity: the unity of body, mind, and li fe, and the unity of the pose [”poomsae” ] and confrontation, a nd cracking down. When you do Taekwondo, you should make your mind peaceful and synchronize your mind with yo 비­ movements, and extend thi s harmony to your life and societ y . This is how in Taekwondo the principle of physical movements, the principle of mind training, a nd the principle of life become one and the sa me. On the other hand, the rig ht poomsae lead to th e right confrontation, w hich w ill eventually produce gr eat destructive power. 5 촬IJ English D해빼 Class( Kori없n Traditional 탬iry Tale) J •The Wenny Man and the Three Goblins Characters: Wenny Man, Goblin 1, Goblin 2, Goblin 3, Goblin 4, Goblin 5, Warty Woman, Neighbor, Greedy Man, Wife -Scene 1- Neighbor: l’m so bored’ Warty w。 m a n.

  • Identification of Asian Garments in Small Museums
    AN ABSTRACTOF THE THESIS OF Alison E. Kondo for the degree ofMaster ofScience in Apparel Interiors, Housing and Merchandising presented on June 7, 2000. Title: Identification ofAsian Garments in Small Museums. Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Elaine Pedersen The frequent misidentification ofAsian garments in small museum collections indicated the need for a garment identification system specifically for use in differentiating the various forms ofAsian clothing. The decision tree system proposed in this thesis is intended to provide an instrument to distinguish the clothing styles ofJapan, China, Korea, Tibet, and northern Nepal which are found most frequently in museum clothing collections. The first step ofthe decision tree uses the shape ofthe neckline to distinguish the garment's country oforigin. The second step ofthe decision tree uses the sleeve shape to determine factors such as the gender and marital status ofthe wearer, and the formality level ofthe garment. The decision tree instrument was tested with a sample population of 10 undergraduates representing volunteer docents and 4 graduate students representing curators ofa small museum. The subjects were asked to determine the country oforigin, the original wearer's gender and marital status, and the garment's formality and function, as appropriate. The test was successful in identifying the country oforigin ofall 12 Asian garments and had less successful results for the remaining variables. Copyright by Alison E.

For this reason, the rent-hanbok market takes a big part of the Korean traditional costume market. Therefor, the recognition of hanbok is changed from the style of uncomfortable and ceremonial clothes, to becoming popular as everyday dress in the younger generation. The various designs of the rental hanbok show two different opinions. One is the increasing popular and general public interest and demand for wearing and showing off traditional hanbok fashions in a positive outlook. Another is the case of the wrong stereotype and knowledge for traditional costume which results in a negative outlook for this type of fashion statement. This study is to look into renting hanbok jeogori for women in Seoul and in Junju. There are 39 styles available in joegori. That being noted, the traditional jeogori has seop and git with dongjung. But it is seen that rental jeogoris do not have the seop, or have the dongjung position as similar to the Po as seen on the men’s coat.

  • Chapter 2 the Educational Framework for Public Programmes at IGRMS and NFMK
    Chapter 2 The Educational Framework for Public Programmes at IGRMS and NFMK Introduction The educational framework of a museum establishes the direction of public programmes and reflects its commitment to offer unique learning opportunities for various target groups. It provides structure of resources, roles, responsibilities and initiatives. It reflects the complexity of learning through objects in informal setting and the need for a fluid and evolving approach to learning in museums. It continually seeks to understand its audiences and finds out new and better ways of learning. The educational framework grows from the mandate of a museum. It is the structure that defines the public face of the museum. It guides the development and delivery of all public programmes and it provides the foundation for measures of success and accountability in public programmes. Ideally, it should seek insight and information from four distinct but related fields of learning - informal and non-formal learning, educational theory, instructional design, and social inclusion. 2.1 Education Theory 2.1.1 Non-formal and Informal Learning 76 Both non-formal and informal learning play pivotal and catalytic role in the field of education. In the words of Prof. Malcolm Adiseshiah (2002), “the non-formal education is wide-ranging because it comprehends all learning outside of the formal system, and has no parameters of time and space. It can be classified for pre-school, unschooled or needing new additional skills in the age group 15-60. Non-formal learning can also be classified by the learning content involved into these organized activities where the major emphasis is on the general education and also those where the content is mainly vocational” (Monhany 2002: 378).

  • ASIAN ART MUSEUM UNVEILS COUTURE KOREA First Major Exhibition of Korean Fashion in U.S
    PRESS CONTACT: Zac T. Rose 415.581.3560 [email protected] ASIAN ART MUSEUM UNVEILS COUTURE KOREA First Major Exhibition of Korean Fashion in U.S. Showcases Traditional Styles Alongside Contemporary Designs, Highlighting Global Influence from Seoul to San Francisco San Francisco, October 5 — Couture Korea presents historic and contemporary fashion from Korea and beyond, exclusively at the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco from November 3, 2017 to February 4, 2018. The result of a partnership between the Seoul-based Arumjigi Culture Keepers Foundation and the Asian Art Museum, this original exhibition introduces American audiences to the incomparable artistry and the living legacy of Korean dress. Couture Korea — whose title borrows from the French to convey Korea’s comparable tradition of exquisite, handcrafted tailoring — weaves together courtly costume from centuries past with the runways of today’s fashion capitals. The exhibition features more than 120 works, including a king’s ethereal robe, various 18th- century women’s ensembles and layers of silk undergarments, alongside contemporary clothing stitched from hardworking denim and even high-tech neoprene. Re-creations of Joseon dynasty (1392–1910) garments using handmade fabrics are juxtaposed with modern styles by celebrated Korean designers Jin Teok, Im Seonoc and Jung Misun as well as looks from Chanel’s Karl Lagerfeld that were inspired by Korean artistic traditions. “Couture Korea elegantly interlaces the traditions of the past with contemporary clothing design to illuminate the ways Koreans — and fashion aficionados around the world — express themselves and their cultural affiliations through dress today,” explains exhibition curator and King Yeongjo's outer robe (dopo), 2015.

This study examines the characteristics of stone signposts, which physically represent the landscape entrance to Korean rural villages, and provide comprehensive information for the sustainable management of rural landscape elements having heritage value. We conducted field surveys and interviews in 313 rural villages in Korea and cross-tabulated the collected data with five question items. We designed one descriptive variable for the cause, set four question items for dependent variables, and analyzed the relationship among the variables. This study reveals that the installation times of stone signposts are related to the major issues of modern Korean history, and discusses how the signposts evolved into rural landscape elements. In addition, the study reveals that stone signposts can be considered a tactic designed to preserve regional identities in modern society and improve the quality of rural village landscapes.
