But what do you know of its genesis? A showcase of Korean treasures and artefacts will travel to Southeast Asia for the first time, inviting you to traverse history and uncover the origins of what you know and love about Korea today. Joseon Korea: Court Treasures and City Life is an intimate inspection of 500 years of Korea’s last dynasty, the Joseon (1392 – 1897) – a period that inimitably shaped modern Korea.

In the spotlight are more than 150 artefacts and treasures from the National Museum of Korea and National Palace Museum of Korea that depict various facets of a vibrant Joseon era – from its royal and religious patronage, life in the courts of power, to the everyday lives of the people. ACM Director Kennie Ting said, “Fans of K-culture will not find this showcase unfamiliar, as many of the stories and treasures that we are showing in this exhibition have inspired Korea’s 1 A National Heritage Board Museum 1 Empress Place Singapore 179555 www.acm.org.sg popular culture – from period drama series to contemporary arts and aesthetics, and even fashion.

  • 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.

  • Tradition and Commerce in Cultural Districts
    Tradition and Commerce in Cultural Districts: A Case Study of Insadong In Seoul, Korea by Jinsun Song A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Environmental Studies in Geography – Tourism Policy and Planning Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2011 © Jinsun Song 2011 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. ii Abstract Cultural clusters with an agglomeration of heritage and historic assets represent national or local history, culture and tradition. Hence, they often become distinctive urban tourism resources supplying multifunctional places for tourists to visit and enjoy. However, the designation of a cultural district by government is not merely a strategy for the preservation of cultural assets and tourism development because a variety of stakeholders, with divergent goals and objectives, are usually involved in the process of converting cultural resources into marketable products. The number of tourists to Insadong, a representative traditional cultural district in Seoul, Korea, has increased rapidly in the last decades with many issues and problems. Insadong is a place where Koreans and foreigners alike experience Korean tradition and it is a unique area where the atmosphere combines both the historical and modern in the centre of the city. The area is also multi-functional, offering a mix of history, entertainment, cuisine, shopping etc. for a mixed clientele. This area has a long history as a cultural business district which was organically generated, but numerous issues and changes have occurred in relation to the commercial development and policy of government.
