  • Design Politics: Consumerization of Post-Industrial South Korea Hyun-Joung (Ryan) Lee, University of Michigan-Ann Arbor (2013)
    design politics: consumerization of post-industrial south korea hyun-joung (ryan) lee, university of michigan-ann arbor (2013) ABSTRACT In recent years, design has become a main theme in administration of Seoul, the capi- tal of South Korea. Under this theme of design, many projects have taken place, in- cluding a number of public constructions. While the purpose behind supporting “de- sign” as the symbol of Korea is to promote a new national image of post-developed nation, some of the Seoul government’s design projects yielded unintended side ef- fects. Tis paper analyzes the discrepancy between the professed rationale of these projects and the actual consequences through the case of Gwanghwamun and Dong- daemun, and suggests a possible direction for the future of design in Korean politics.

We are further interested in its implementation within the newly pro moted concept of creative economy aiming at the self-sustainability of the Korean economy and the creation of new jobs. Korean heritage is seen as a pragmatic tool for the realization of this goal, offering various cultural experiences to the tourists looking for authentic existential experiences, or to Koreans who are willing to learn their own culture anew. In addition, in the intercultural domains, where various encounters between Korean and Western artists are taking place, we are witnessing diverse con-creative processes leading to new artistic and cultural forms that are more attractive to the young Korean audience, lacking immediateSeoul Intangible experience Cultural of the Heritageold Korean Center tradition.

  • Finding Chongno the Search for the Past in the Present
    Situations Vol. 1(Fall 2010) © 2010 by Yonsei University Yang Jung Lee1 [email protected] Finding Chongno The Search for the Past in the Present In the 1920s Chongno was full of “brick houses, tiled roofs, tin roofs, thatched cottages… men in suits, kimonos, hanbok in black or white … men walking forwards, sideways, stooping, shoving, perched on something, crawling, yawning, smoking, spitting, and even urinating… people speak in Japanese, Western languages, Chinese, and different dialects of Korean… Of course since it is in a metropolitan area, there are foreigners, Seoul people, country people, people who are dressed to a tee, some dressed like beggars" (Chang 71-72, my translation). During the Chosǒn Dynasty, Chongno functioned as the center of commerce; if you could not find something in Chongno, it was a good bet that you would not find it anywhere. During the Japanese occupation, it functioned as a gathering place for revolutionaries, modern boys and modern girls, literary greats, newspaper printers, vendors, and peddlers. It was during this time that Chongno became the heart of the Chosǒn people. Ch’ǒnggyech’ǒn divided the city into the Japanese section in the south and the Korean section in the north. The center of the Korean section was Chongno. Today Chongno is still a conglomeration of different people and buildings although it has undergone great changes. Chongno sparkles with the light reflected on the windows of tall cement office buildings; tiled roofs of traditional wooden buildings are interspersed between concrete blocks. Men and women in suits run to work, while students walk to class yawning; ajummas shove their way to their destinations, while some stooped or loitering men spit or smoke.

  • Cheonggyecheon Restoration Project: the Politics and Implications
    Yoon: Cheonggyecheon Restoration Project: The Politics and Implications Cheonggyecheon Restoration Project: The Politics and Implications of Globalization and Gentrification Yasmin Yoon !1 of !20 Published by Dartmouth Digital Commons, 2018 1 Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Politics, Economics and World Affairs, Vol. 1 [2018], Iss. 1, Art. 8 Abstract This paper examines the process of gentrification by analyzing the actors implicated in gentrification, the global and domestic discourses surrounding redevelopment, and the political motivations undergirding such projects in the context of the Cheonggyecheon Restoration Project. It takes a critical stance towards the South Korean government’s pursuit of redevelopment projects with the goal of generating “world-class” spaces favoring the interests of large corporate entities, with which it has established economic ties constituting a conflict of interest. Consequences of these gentrifying practices include the displacement of local merchants, communities, and cultural spaces, which further stratify already disparate levels of privilege within the country’s political economy. !2 of !20 https://digitalcommons.dartmouth.edu/dujpew/vol1/iss1/8 2 Yoon: Cheonggyecheon Restoration Project: The Politics and Implications Table of Contents Introduction 4 Industrialization, Development Discourse, and Political Motivations 6 Execution of the Project 7 Politics of Redevelopment, Corruption, and Public Reception 10 Gentrification 13 Conclusion 16 Notes 18 !3 of !20 Published by Dartmouth Digital Commons, 2018 3 Dartmouth Undergraduate Journal of Politics, Economics and World Affairs, Vol. 1 [2018], Iss. 1, Art. 8 Introduction Foul pollution, traffic hell, back-breaking housing prices, brutal rivalry and unruly streets—this is the Seoul we think of today.
