To this end, MMCA worked to incorporate into its education programs of each MMCA venue: MMCA Gwacheon focuses on research and education and its main target audience of children and families; MMCA Seoul presents diverse trends in contemporary art and culture; and MMCA Deoksugung seeks to enhance understanding of art on a foundation of modern art. In an attempt to actively respond to the widening scope of participants and social agendas, MMCA ran programs for young North Korean defectors and out-of-school youth and launched programs for those in their 50s and above. Finally, the museum worked to expand its reach to more people to ensure that everyone can enjoy culture together. These programs include online programs, programs for people with disabilities, and the School Visiting Program to spread the museum's education content in schools.

    A STUDY ON ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF BENEFICIARY PAYS PRINCIPLE IN WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: THE CASE OF NAMYANGJU IN KOREA By Jaehyun Yoon THESIS Submitted to KDI School of Public Policy and Management in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF DEVELOPMENT POLICY 2014 A STUDY ON ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF BENEFICIARY PAYS PRINCIPLE IN WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: THE CASE OF NAMYANGJU IN KOREA By Jaehyun Yoon THESIS Submitted to KDI School of Public Policy and Management in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF DEVELOPMENT POLICY 2014 Professor Tae Yong Jung ABSTRACT A STUDY ON ECONOMIC EVALUATION OF BENEFICIARY PAYS PRINCIPLE IN WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: THE CASE OF NAMYANGJU IN KOREA By Jaehyun Yoon Using hedonic price method, this study analyzes the impact of restriction for water quality protection on property value with officially announced prices of reference land in the city of Namyangju in 2012. The analysis results show that there is statistically significant evidence that supports the land price difference between the restricted area and the unrestricted area of Namyangju caused by the restriction for water quality protection. In specific, under the semi- log model, the loss rate that the restricted area experience is 15.0% of the land price of the unrestricted area. Under the double-log model, the rate is estimated to be 19.8%. Based on the results from the regression analyses of the models, the total compensations for the city of Namyangju are estimated to be in the range between 6.5 and 8.6 trillion won.

    P o n t o n e PRESS RELEASE G A L L E R Y Kim Bumsu Sacred Cinema 12 April – 5 May 2019 Pontone Gallery is proud to present, for the first time in the UK, an exhibition by South Korean artist Kim Bumsu. Trained in his homeland and the United States, Kim’s work has been extensively shown in the Far East and Europe. This is an exclusive opportunity to experience his idiosyncratic and intriguing mixed- media constructions. The artist makes wall-mounted ‘light boxes’, fabricated from acrylic sheet, exposed film stock and LED lighting. Strips of old and discarded film are cut up and arranged to create large, complex collages, which are backlit by the Hidden Emotion V | 2016 | Movie Film, Acrylic, LED | 45 x 45 x 8 cm (17.5 x 17.5 x 3 in) LEDs within the boxes. Multi-coloured, pixellated patterns, reminiscent of mandalas and sacred geometries, create a glowing, kaleidoscopic effect. It is only on closer inspection that the nature of the source material is revealed. The viewer discovers a plethora of tiny and intriguing images, some recognisable, others less so. The cutting and pasting process, intrinsic to making the collages, corresponds with that of the film editor, who assembles fragments of information to make a coherent whole. Kim Bumsu’s compositions assimilate the disparate nature of their components and unite them into something new. The artist salvages and re-purposes that which is lost or unwanted. Kim explains this as an act of ‘romanticism’ that ‘arouses compassion’. Wishing to rescue what has been abandoned, his fractured re-making of lost narratives reminds us of the pre-digital, analogue age and its particularly tangible pleasures.

  • Distribution and Management of the Invasive Exotic Species Ambrosia Trifida and Sicyos Angulatus in the Seoul Metropolitan Area
    Journal of Ecological Engineering Volume 18, Issue 5, Sep. 2017, pages 27–36 DOI: 10.12911/22998993/76216 Research Article DISTRIBUTION AND MANAGEMENT OF THE INVASIVE EXOTIC SPECIES AMBROSIA TRIFIDA AND SICYOS ANGULATUS IN THE SEOUL METROPOLITAN AREA Kee Dae Kim1 1 Department of Environmental Education, Korea National University of Education, Cheongju 361-892, Republic of Korea, e-mail: [email protected] Received: 2017.07.08 ABSTRACT Accepted: 2017.08.01 We investigated the status of invasive exotic plants disturbing the ecosystem of the Published: 2017.09.01 Seoul metropolitan area and examined the management of such plants. We selected our study sites based on those used in previous studies and on information in data- bases. All flora were classified into 57 families and 211 species; we evaluated 253 plant communities. The representative, invasive exotic species were Sicyos angulatus, Lactuca scariola, Ambrosia trifida, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, and Eupatorium rugo- sum. Stands of A. trifida ranged in area from 214 to 16,882 m2 and were present in riparian zones, road and forest edges, slopes, and other open habitats at all sites, cov- ering an average of 37.87% of all study areas. In Gwangju, Ansan, and Anyang cities and in Yeoncheon-gun, A. trifida coverage was >50%; the total mean coverage was near-continuous along the Han and the South Han rivers, broken only by cliffs in some riparian zones, and anthropogenic constructions. A. trifida and S. angulatus require careful management because of extensive growth, shading, and twining. The biodi- versity of native species may be conserved by physical eradication of these plants.

  • Burlington Economic Development Leads Trade Mission, Sister-Cities Visit to South Korea
    Burlington Economic Development leads Trade Mission, Sister-Cities visit to South Korea The City of Burlington Economic Development Department wrapped up a lively year of industry activity in 2019 with a 4-day trade mission to South Korea, where we visited with multiple companies, trade organizations, local governments and universities. It was a productive trip that is already yielding results and commerce heading into 2020. Why go abroad to recruit? First, let’s be clear: Burlington’s primary strategy for growing jobs and investment is to work with our existing companies and entrepreneurs to help them be strong, growing enterprises. However, a comprehensive strategy does not rely on a single method to fulfill its goals. This is where business recruitment fits in – specifically international business recruitment. In the last 15 years, attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has emerged as a strategy to meet new investment targets and ‘reshore’ manufacturing. North Carolina and Burlington have experienced significant success attracting FDI. For example: North Carolina saw $15 Billion in new foreign direct investment (FDI) from 2007 to 2016 Burlington Metro Area exported almost $300 Million worth of products in 2016 Since 2016 50% of the Burlington Metro Areas projects are FDI projects These FDI projects represent $144 Million in investment and 170 jobs Why Korea? Burlington and North Carolina have some legitimate Korean bona-fides and a budding, fruitful relationship. Companies like SK, Doosan, Kioti, CS Carolina and LS already have significant facilities in North Carolina and offer promise for more growth. North Carolina now has an international economic development office in Korea specifically to assist in recruiting these firms.

  • Commuting Analysis in the Seoul Metropolitan Statistical Area
    1. Introduction According to UNCHS1) data, the one-way commuting time in Seoul was about 60 minutes in 1998, while that in Tokyo was 45 minutes and that in New York was 32 minutes. In general, a city’s competitiveness is often measured by the commuting patterns and commuting time as well as some other economic variables such as Gross Regional Domestic Product(GRDP). Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the commuting not only in terms of time, but also flow. In order to explore commuting patterns, geographic classification is very Commuting Analysis in the Seoul Metropolitan Statistical Area important, which defines the spatial commuting boundary of a city. Thus, the Metropolitan Statistical Areas(MSAs) is used in this paper. It was defined by cross-commuting rates, population, and population density, which is quite similar to the criteria of a Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas(SMSAs) in the United States. Then, the commuting inflows and outflows are considered using In-Out tabulation(often called origin/destination). From the In-Out tabulation matrix, the business and resident areas were able to be classified. Accordingly, the method of commuting is inspected across regions to see any potentially spatial constraint. For example, whether or not more people would use public transportation in the central business districts. This analysis in commuting behavior would be a great potential information source for regional development policies for suburban areas. 1) Global Urban Indicators of United Nations Centre for Human Settlements 14 KIET Industrial Economic Review 2.
