지등 문화상품 도안에서 조선후기 풍속화의 적용에 관한 연구

Korean culture is attracting attention both domestically and internationally as its international status has risen. Among them, genre painting in the late Joseon Dynasty can be said to be an important medium of Korean traditional culture that captures the lifestyle of ancient Korean society as a visual image, and it is of great significance to inherit and promote Korean traditional culture by using this genre painting as a design for geographical cultural products. This study seeks to explore new applications of genre painting in the late Joseon Dynasty to design geographical cultural products, expand its scope, and express Korean traditional culture in various ways. First, through literature research, the characteristics and artistic values of genre painting in the late Joseon Dynasty were analyzed, and the application status of cultural products based on the market was considered. Second, as a result of analyzing the application cases of genre painting in the late Joseon Dynasty in geographical cultural products, it was found that genre painting in the late Joseon Dynasty was emphasized only on specific holidays and places, so it was not fully utilized in cultural products such as everyday land, and the style appeared relatively simple. Finally, through case analysis and market survey results, an alternative to applying the genre painting in the late Joseon Dynasty to geographical products was suggested. This study aims to explore a new way to use folk paintings in late Joseon Dynasty cultural products by combining modern geodge materials and other design practice processes to provide new implications and methods for the convergence of traditional culture and modern cultural products, and to provide useful data for the succession and innovation of traditional culture.

돌하르방을 응용한 텍스타일 디자인 개발

Dol hareubang is the important cultural heritage of the Republic of Korea, which is listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. As the medium of formative arts activities with strategic and aesthetic values for global competitiveness, it has its own cultural uniqueness. This study attempted to develop scalable textile design as cultural contents by analyzing the values and formative aspects of dol hareubang patterns with traditional motives. For this, the symbolicity and formative characteristics of the cultural heritage were analyzed through literature and visual resources. Based on the results, practical design was created through reanalysis. For example, dol hareubang textile patterns were expressed in an active and vibrant fashion, reflecting manly, dynamic and moderate aspects. The eyes, nose, lip and body of the guardian statue were reconstructed in a one-repeat form through distortion, repetition, uniformity and exaggeration, completing 5 different textile designs. The results reveal that the expressive attributes, classification characteristics, formative expression elements, specific formative factors and symbolic meaning of dol hareubang can be expanded to cultural contents. From the reanalysis of traditional Korean culture, the dynamic and humorous aspects of the stone statue can create the differentiated values of Korean traditional culture through the expansion of Korean traditional patterns.

The Revival of the “Glorious Past” In the Republic of Korea under Park Chung Hee

The study examines the Republic of Korea’s (ROK) history politics under Park Chung Hee rule (1961-1979). The author argues that it’s possible to identify two stages of the development of policy toward Korea’s national heritage: 1) the early stage (1961 to mid 1960s), during which the government of the ROK managed to create the legal basis of the state policy on the protection of cultural heritage and the Office of Cultural Properties and 2) the late stage (the late 1960’s to 1979), when the regime carried out large-scale propaganda of Korean traditional culture. The article covers such problems as historical views of Park Chung Hee, restoration of Korean places of military glory, measures to perpetuate the memory of Korean outstanding historical figures - admiral Yi Sun-sin and king Sejong the Great, glorification of the ancient Korean kingdom Silla, promotion of Confucian values. The author concludes that President Park Chung Hee sought to strengthen the national consciousness of South Koreans in order to mobilize them to implement national tasks and unite the population around the authorities. The main emphasis was placed on the heroic pages of the military history of Korea and the history of Silla, the first unified Korean state. In the 1970s, the state actively promoted Confucian values to ensure the loyalty of the population to the authoritarian regime of Park Chung Hee. Despite the democratization of the Republic of Korea since 1987, Park Chung Hee’s cultural policy has played a significant role in shaping the historical identity of modern South Koreans. The research is based on Park Chung Hee’s works, ROK’s official documents and materials of South Korean researchers.

상투는 언제 사라졌나?

When did topknots, called sang-tu, disappear in Korean? People generally say it probably disappeared after the early 1930s because Imperial Japan had banned it as a policy at the time in colonial Korea. Is that true? The case of the movement for the improvement of living conditions生活改善運動 in the late 1920s calls for a reexamination of such academic understanding. This research is expected to help find internal causes of social changes in colonial Korea.
 It is true that Japanese Government-General of Korea weakened Korean traditional culture like topknots, white clothes, and so on after the wartime. But Chosun-ilbo(朝鮮日報), Shin-gan-hwe(新幹會) carried out the movement for the improvement of living conditions and campaigned short hair(斷髮) from the late 1920s to the beginning of 1930s and the attempts were partially successful. This shows the multi-layered causes of social changes in colonial Korea, related to Korean people’s demands as well as the policy intervention and physical forcing by the Japanese government-general of Korea.

전통의 공간적 재현과 사회적 변화

In recent years, interest in Korean traditional culture is also growing with Korean popular culture. The visitors to traditional spaces has also increased significantly. In this article, we tried to look at ‘Minsokchon’(Korean folk village), ‘minsokmaul’(folk villages), and ‘hanokmaul’(hanok villages) among the traditional spaces. First, we summarized the process and characteristics of each village. Minsokchon is an artificial village and can be said a theme park for tourism. Minsokmaul has been established for the preservation of tradition and has the characteristics of an outdoor museum. Hanokmaul, an urban hanok area built in Japanese colonial era, is a commercial district that is not related to tradition and is like a street shopping mall. The characteristics of each village are related to the social changes. When the tradition disappeared in the 1970s, Minsokchon was intended to be built for preservation. However, due to the economic situation in Korea and the emergence of modern leisure, Minsokchon was developed as a tourist destination. In the 1980s, minsokmauls were designated, and Around 1990, with the spread of private cars, the era of public leisure opened, and minsokmauls attracted attention. Meanwhile, the cultural heritage exploration boom also affected this. Around 2010, Hanok Village began to become popularity. At this time, urban regeneration emerged as a social agenda, and Hanokmaul was proposed as an urban regeneration plan through tradition. Hanokmaul got attention as a representative successful case. Minsokmauls are regulated by laws concerning the protection of cultural properties. On the other hand, Hanok Village is closely related to urban regeneration policies in that it is regulated by ordinance.

럭셔리 패션 브랜드의 한국 전통문화 활용에 나타난 진정성 분석 - 구찌(Gucci)를 중심으로 -

세계화와 지구지역화 시대의 도래에 따라 다국적 기업은 현지 시장 진출의 전략으로써 전통문화를 브랜드 마케팅에 적용하고 있다. 서구자본을 기반으로 한 럭셔리 패션 브랜드의 타문화 활용은 문화적 차용이라는 문화교류의 방법으로 인정받아왔으나, 최근 비서구권 문화를 오역하는 문화적 전유 문제가 대두됨에 따라 마케팅의 대상으로 사용하는 전통문화에 대해 진정성 있게 접근하는 태도가 요구된다. 구찌는 전통문화를 디자인과 마케팅에 적극적으로 사용하는 대표적인 브랜드로 문화적 전유 문제를 극복하기 위한 정책을 내세 우며 다양성 실행을 선도하는 이미지를 구축하고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 한국 전통문화를 활용하는 럭셔리 패션 브랜드의 정책을 진정성 표현의 관점에서 살펴보기 위하여 구찌의 사례를 분석하고, 현대 패션산업에서 의 전통문화 활용 방향을 논의하는 것에 목적을 두었다. 연구방법으로 문헌연구를 통하여 패션산업에서의 타문화 차용 현황 및 구찌의 브랜드 아이덴티티를 파악하였고, Gilmore and Pine Ⅱ의 진정성 인지 구조를 재구성하여 2012년 이후 구찌의 한국 전통문화 사용 사례를 분석하였다. 나아가 구찌와 협업한 국내 브랜드 의 실무자 및 전통문화 분야 전문가와의 인터뷰를 병행하였다. 연구 결과, 구찌는 전통문화의 대표적 이미지 를 적용한 디자인 개발, 브랜드의 비주얼 아이덴티티를 반영한 전통문화 체험, 전통문화의 지속적인 영향력 을 위한 부가적 활동을 통하여 한국 전통문화에 진정성 있게 접근하는 모습을 보여주었고, 이는 다양성의 존중이라는 브랜드 아이덴티티와 부합하는 전략이라고 할 수 있다. 그러나 현대 패션산업의 본질은 상업성에 있으며 문화적 전유로 인한 피해를 방지하기 위해서는 전통문화 차용에 대한 방향을 구체적으로 설정할 필 요가 있다. 본 연구는 럭셔리 패션 브랜드의 한국 전통문화 활용에 대한 진정성을 파악할 수 있는 기초적인 틀을 제공하고, 전통문화산업에 종사하는 전문가의 의견을 반영한 문화교류의 방향을 논의하는 점에서 의의 를 가진다.

고려 태조~목종대 왕실의 편제－왕실 남성의 ‘태자(太子)’·‘군(君)’ 칭호를 중심으로－

This dissertation aims at investigating the organization and legislative status of the royal family (wangshil, 王室) in the period of the early Goryeo dynasty before the Chinese nobility system (bongjakje, 封爵制) was adjusted according to the sociocultural foundation of the Goryeo society and brought to a conclusion as the Goryeo nobility system. After the establishment of the dynasty, the Goryeo court gave the official titles Jeongyun (正胤), Donggung (東宮), and Taeja (太子) to the destined heir to the throne and granted further potential aspirants an official title in the form of ‘royal Palace Name (宮院名) + Gun (君, Lord).’ This Gun title, based upon the name of the Queen Mother or one’s own Palace Name, is presumed to be related to a traditional Korean culture of ‘geononymy (宅號)’ that listed men in relation to women (wife and mother). This culture of geononymy can be seen as the remains of a cognatic social structure and a marital custom of matrilocality. In the biographies of the royal family in the History of Goryeo, most of the male members of the early royal family are listed as ‘○○Taeja (太子)’ or ‘○○Daewang (大王)’, which are not official titles but posthumous epithets. The system of posthumous conferment of Taeja and Daewang titles seems to have been established at least in Gyeongjong’s times. This system derived from that of the prosperous period of the Dang dynasty. In Gyeongjong’s reign, ‘Gaenyeonggun (開寧君)’, a new title completely different from before and not based on the Palace Name, appeared. In Gyeongjong’s reign, attempts to adjust the political system between Goryeo and China, which had been initiated under Gwangjong’s reign, continued. Gyeongjong tried to complete the royal organization for the deceased and alive members of the royal family.

Formation of modern Korean culture

This article is devoted to the history of the formation and development of modern Korean culture. The article, first of all, reveals the concept of the terms "culture", "mass culture" and "modern culture", and provides conclusions about the fact that culture is an indicator, the so-called measure of consciousness and values ​​of a person and society as a whole. Mass culture, in turn, has become the leading cultural form and, under the influence of globalization processes, it has become a global phenomenon. Through cultural integration, the exchange of customs, traditions, art, and technologies with each other and their modification in accordance with modern views and values, modern culture is formed, which opens up new areas of research for scientists. The paper also discusses the relevance of this topic, the features of the formation of traditional Korean culture, and the factors that influenced its transformation and transformation into one of the areas of modern mass culture. Before considering the modern phenomenon, the study provides a brief history of the gradual development of culture from ancient times to the present day. The paper also cites a number of scholarly historians, culturologists-Korean studies, both Uzbek and foreign, and their scientific works in the field of Korean studies, and based on their analysis, this study was carried out. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of the modern phenomenon of the cultural wave of South Korea - Hallyu, its economic content, state policy aimed at supporting and developing Korean culture, and territorial popularization, as a phenomenon that is a unique interweaving of opposite principles: traditional Eastern (Confucian) and Western cultural values, finding its connoisseurs all over the world, including in Uzbekistan, as a universal culture. The peculiarity and novelty of this phenomenon are also that, unlike neighboring Eastern cultures such as Chinese, Japanese or Indian, representing a person, first of all, a picture of the traditional classical era pops up before his eyes, in the case of Korea, more popular representation of the current modern post-industrial era. The people of South Korea managed to find a balance of traditions and innovations that best meets the requirements of the modern development of the country.

The invention and promotion of cha-rye in Korea

Cha-rye (tea etiquette), now considered representative of Korean tea culture, is a new tradition developed during the Park Chung-hee government (1961–1979) and subsequently promoted nationally and internationally. With Korea's rapid industrialization and modernization in the 1960s and 1970s, traditional culture began to disintegrate, which caused various social problems and resulted in ethical and moral confusion among the people. A tea culture revival was proposed by some tea masters as a solution for the chaos in society, and cha-rye was designated a “tradition” to be restored. Anti-Japanese nationalist ideology proved a good facilitator for the transformation of Korean traditional culture, but controversies based in practical limitations arose among tea masters in the process of establishing a Korean-style tea spirit and practice. The re-invention of cha-rye demonstrates how a tradition has been created through the complex and multi-layered dynamics of Korea's rapidly changing political and social environment in combination with nationalist ideology.

게일의 미출판 영역 시조의 계보학적 위상 고찰

This work explores the characteristics and establishes the historical significance of James Scarth Gale(1863-1937)’s unpublished English translations of Korean classical Sijo(時調). In the Thomas Fisher Rare Book Library belonging to the University of Toronto, Canada lies unpublished translations of Korean classics; part of this collection is a typed unpublished book called Pen-Pictures of Old Korea(『朝鮮筆景』) and a manuscript called The Diary(『日誌』) which contains English translations of Korean classical Sijo. During Gale’s 40 year stay in Korea, he devoted 30 of those years to translating Sijo. Previous research shows Gale’s translations differ in demeanor and purpose by publication period. Specifically, the first series of translations, those published in The Korean Repository between 1895 to 1898, was translated with the English audience in mind. On the other hand, the second series of translations, those published in The Korea Bookman in 1922, strives to highlight the literary qualities of the source. The last series of translations, published between 1924 and 1927 in The Korean Mission Field, amalgamate qualities of the previous two in attempt to please a broader audience. The Pen-Pictures of Old Korea, which was set to be published in 1912 but remains unpublished, shows similar qualities to that of Gale’s first series of translations. Although the first series of translations encompasses a large and diverse array of media, judging by time and its attributes, The Pen-Pictures of Old Korea can effectively be categorized into his first series of translations. Assuming such, we arrive at the notion that Gale translated as a service to Western literature until the early 1910s. Regarding The Diary(『日誌』), previous research has unveiled its publication period as similar to that of The Korea Bookman, the second series of translations. The two works are similar in its originalist motivations, but there also exist points of distinctions. Considering these qualities, we can assume that The Korea Bookman was written prior to The Diary, and The Diary was written to supplement and expand the subject The Korea Bookman was based off of. Through the discovery of The Diary, as Gale emphasized in The Korea Bookman, we arrive at the conclusion that Gale paid respects to the Korean traditional culture and continuously attempted to publicize such to the Western society.

신한복 패러다임에 적합한 박물관 복식전시 연구

This study reveals the possibility of exhibiting new-hanbok in museums through a case analysis of costume exhibitions. Moreover, this study explores the direction of museum exhibitions suitable for the new-hanbok paradigm. The research method was conducted through case studies of museums in Korea and new-hanbok brands. Nine museums were selected, and the survey period is from January 5, 2021, to February 20, 2022. Nine companies participating in the Hanbok Wave project were selected and analyzed for the new-hanbok brand. As a result of the study, the costume exhibitions of museums were focused on the collection, education, and storage of costume relics. The frequency of costume exhibitions in national and public museums was low, and it is necessary to expand the exhibitions of costumes in art and craft museums. Traditional clothing was the most common theme. The exhibition was mainly during the late Joseon Dynasty and the Joseon Enlightenment period. Most of the exhibitions were special exhibitions, exchange exhibitions, and exhibitions to examine relics. The new-hanbok brand did not actively utilize the museum costume exhibitions. However, some of the new-hanbok exhibitions investigated provided a different perspective from the current traditional clothing exhibitions and actively utilized the artistry of hanbok. Therefore, suggestions on the direction of museum exhibitions suitable for the new hanbok paradigm are as follows. First, the heritage value preserved by the museum can be sustained and expanded through the exhibition of new-hanbok. Second, artistry based on Korean traditional culture can be realized through museum exhibitions. Third, it was considered that museum exhibitions could be used as a communication strategy for new-hanbok to become daily wear.

이민자를 위한 사회통합 프로그램 교재의 한국 사회문화 관련 내용 분석

The Social Integration Programs run by the Ministry of Justice play an important role in coping with growing immigration in Korea. All immigrants joining the Program use two kinds of textbooks: (1) Korean Language and Culture and (2) Understanding Korean Society. In December 2020, the newly revised textbooks were published; it is necessary to examine if they are assisting immigrants’ anticipatory socialization into Korean society.
 This study aims to analyze the two newly revised textbooks used for the social integration programs run by the Ministry of Justice and to suggest implications on how to further improve them. For this purpose, the content on Korean society and culture in the revised textbooks were analyzed. These are the major findings. First, Korean Language and Culture mostly deals with Korean society and culture while rarely touching on Korean politics, laws, history and geography. Second, both textbooks partly reflect the comparative view of culture. Third, the holistic view of culture can be found only in the second book (Understanding Korean Society), but not very often. Fourth, Understanding Korean Society covers more current issues and statistics than Korean Language and Culture while Korean Language and Culture deals with more useful items for daily lives and traditional Korean culture than the other. Fifth, considerable relevance when it comes to topics has been found between the two textbooks.
 In order to develop further improved textbooks on Korean society and culture for future immigrants, the developers of the textbooks should select more current and useful materials on Korean society and culture with holistic and comparative views of culture. In addition, it is necessary for the developers of each book to work in closer cooperation with one another.

쿨 재팬(Cool Japan) 전략 고찰을 통한 한국 전통복식 글로벌화에 관한 탐색적 연구

Hanbok, traditional Korean clothes, has changed from daily wear to ceremonial clothes just in 100 years since the 19th century. Hanbok, worn only on special occasions such as holidays and weddings, has been reduced to disposable clothing worn through rental rather than purchase, and the Hanbok industry is in a crisis. On the other hand, the traditional Japanese clothing, the Kimono, links the past and the present. The motivation of this study was started by noting a new boom in Kimono. As the world pays attention to Korean style and Hallyu(Korean Wave), it is meaningful to study traditional Korean clothes. Therefore, this study explored the future direction of the Hanbok by examining the globalization strategy of traditional Japanese clothes and the Cool Japan strategy as Japan’s cultural policy. The result is the following; First, it is necessary to take a dual approach of establishing an identity for Korean fashion, which is rising due to the overseas Korean wave, and a correct recognition strategy for the next generation in Korea. Second, it is challenging to succeed abroad simply because of the pride in being fashionable in Korea. Like Japan’s Cool Japan strategy, it is thought that a systematic approach is needed to globalize Korean traditional clothing in the context of the spread of Korean traditional culture at the national level. To this end, it is urgent to develop a design code that can represent Korea’s identity. Finally, the government should survey on the preference and perception of overseas consumers about Hanbok and provide information to related companies and local administrative agencies. It is judged that the government-level preference and perception survey data for Hanbok can be used as primary data for private companies to advance overseas.
