Abstract

The study examines the current policy of intangible cultural properties in Gyeongsangnam-do and suggest a positive intangible cultural policy in Gyeongnam with the background. The intangible cultural property policy faced a major change with the implementation of the Intangible Cultural Property Act in 2016. However, Gyeongnam cannot keep up with the changing trend of the times, but is settled for the Cultural Heritage Protection Act in the past. In this situation, the researcher mentions the Gyeongnam Intangible Cultural Property Policy based on the work of the National Heritage Center, which implements the national intangible cultural property policy. Researchers have investigated the site of intangible cultural properties in Gyeongnam since 2000, and they have been constantly colliding due to differences in perspective between the site of intangible cultural properties and the administrative agency that carries out policies. This is because there is distrust in each other.
 Currently, the state operates intangible cultural properties, which are largely divided into transmission support, research, research records, exhibitions, performances, and education. The transmission support focuses on transferring skills such as screening for graduates, opening events once a year, bank operation of transmission crafts, and support for revitalizing traditional crafts. On the other hand, in the research records, intangible cultural properties are investigated, recorded, and academic research are conducted. Also, the exhibitions, performances, and education focus on transferring and distributing intangible cultural properties. While maintaining the basic principles of intangible cultural properties by transferring, distributing, and recording intangible cultural properties, the state is focusing on converting them into cultural contents that can be enjoyed by all people.
 However, intangible cultural properties in Gyeongsangnam-do are complacent in the framework of original preservation, but sharing with local residents are overlooked. It is also questionable whether the original form of intangible cultural properties is properly descended.
 Currently, Gyeongnam is trying to lay the foundation for the administrative system of intangible cultural properties under the Intangible Cultural Properties Act through a legislative notice of the Gyeongsangnamdo Ordinance on the Preservation and Promotion of Intangible Cultural Properties on September 9, 2012. In fact, the policy of intangible cultural properties in Gyeongnam has been implemented in accordance with the Cultural Properties Protection Act. Therefore, Gyeongnam's intangible cultural property policy was not implemented in line with the operation, management, support, and transfer system such as the Cultural Heritage Administration or the National Intangible Heritage Center. The paper discusses the positive direction of Gyeongnam intangible cultural property policy, focusing on the work of the National Intangible Heritage Institute, an institution that systematically implements the intangible cultural property policy.
