They also illustrate both the theoretical and the practical dimensions of the concept of correlativity, still having the potential to show us a way forward. Inspired by the urban equivalent of a traditional village structure, Kim sublimated into modern building types the fluid inde- terminate spaces created by its alleyways and courtyard. This legacy is what has enabled these buildings to survive handsomely for some thirty years amid the omnipresent threat of high-density development in Seoul. Introduction The remaining option of a public planner — a planner, that Swoo-Geun Kim’s building projects in the Daehangno area is, who works in the public interest — was the role that of Seoul provide an illuminating example of how architects Swoo-Geun Kim began to assume as he executed a series of 50 - 2014/1 can respond to high-density environments, and they still projects in the Daehangno area.

    BUKCHON VILLAGE TOUR Bukchon Village, Royal Palace, & Museum Tour 14:00 ~ 18:00 US$72 National Palace Museum of Korea → Gyeongbokgung Palace & Folk Museum → Samcheong-dong → Bukchon Traditional Village – Ddeok Museum The National Palace Museum of Korea opened in 1992 displaying relics from the Joseon Dynasty [1392~1910]. Over 20,000 royal relics from Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung Palace, Changgyeonggung Palace and Jongmyo Shrine are on display. Built in 1395, Gyeongbokgung Palace is also commonly referred to as the Northern Palace because it is the furthest north when compared to the neighboring palaces of Changdeokgung (Eastern Palace) and Gyeongheegung (Western Palace). Gyeongbokgung Palace is arguably the most beautiful and remains the grandest of all five palaces. The National Palace Museum of Korea is located south of Heungnyemun Gate, and the National Folk Museum is located east within Hyangwonjeong. Samcheongdong-gil Road stretches from Gyeongbokgung Palace to Samcheong Tunnel. Just past Samcheong Tunnel, at the end of the walkway, you’ll find Samcheong Park—a park famous for its thick forest and scenic views. Bukchon Hanok Village is a Korean traditional village with a long history located between Gyeongbok Palace, The traditional village is composed of lots of alleys, hanok and is preserved to show a 600-year-old urban environment About 2,000 old Korean kitchen utensils and tteok (rice cake) related items are displayed here and arranged by various themes. The displayed utensils are handmade household necessities that are ingenuous, yet reveal the lifestyle of the working class. The elderly may relive fond childhood memories and the younger generation can experience the wisdom of ancestors through the rare kitchen utensils.
