Research on the Incheon landing operation during the Korean War has also been approached with a focus on the landing at Wolmido, Incheon Port, rather than the Bupyeong Munitions-Industrial Complex, which was located on the site of the Incheon Army Arsenal of the Japanese Colonialism. However, although it was mentioned that the recapture of the Bupyeong munitions-industrial complex was an important goal in the field of military research, it is true that the Bupyeong munitions-industrial complex was not given much importance as an important recapture goal. The fact that the area of the Incheon Army Arsenal under the Japanese colonialism grew into a munitions-industrial complex with the acquisition of the US Army after liberation is very important for understanding the heritage value of this area. This study, through a diachronic examination from the time of the Incheon Army Arsenal under Japanese rule to Ascom City, the US military base, the background of the location of the Incheon Army Arsenal, the US military arsenal facilities and site acceptance process and meaning after liberation, and Bupyeong during the Korean War It was revealed that recapturing the military-industrial complex was the first goal of the Incheon Landing Operation.","PeriodicalId":235419,"journal":{"name":"Institute For Kyeongki Cultural Studies","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122669754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Gongju and Daegu Eupchi, which were selected as case areas, are representative Eupchi in Chungcheong-do and Gyeongsang-do in the late Joseon Dynasty. For these two traditional cities, the changes in the religious placeness of Eupchi during the modern times were examined. First, I looked at the movement of the pivot in the religious landscape related to the dissolution of Eupchi. At the same time, focusing on the missionary strategies of religions newly introduced during the modern times, I also examined the preferred location for each religion and the relationship with residential areas by ethnicity. Next, I analyzed the placeness of each religion introduced during the modern times by inertia of place, appropriation of place, power of place, and cohesion of place. From this point of view, the unique religious placeness of the two traditional cities was changed by the new religious pivot formed by the foreign religions. This resulted in displaceness.","PeriodicalId":235419,"journal":{"name":"Institute For Kyeongki Cultural Studies","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115037233","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

SMA's population has been over 50% since December 2019, and it came from the outstanding rise of SMA – non SMA population gap in the end of 2015. The high tide of SMA in 2015 is linked directly with two things. One is the big growth of semiconductor and display products in SMA around 2015, and the other is the development of 2nd Dongtan Newtown which the first dwellers moved in 2015. The background factors of the two things are polices that allow industrial complex at Pyeontaek, a southern city of SMA, esp, acceptance of new large semiconductor campus of Samsung Electronics, and create new big city at southern SMA for stabilizing housing price. Throughout this process, our state, S. Korea government had done as if she was an civil affair clergy for giant conglomerate, so called Jaebul. This kind of state is called a neoliberalist state, or Schumpeterian workfare state, which S. Korea takes the form of after the shocks from IMF crisis in 1998. Under that kind of state, the government has become inferior to global multinational conglomerates less and less including Samsung and LG, and her policies for regional equality have been stepped back further and further.","PeriodicalId":235419,"journal":{"name":"Institute For Kyeongki Cultural Studies","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124995010","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This format existed in the Joseon Dynasty as in Taekriji, but it has been established during the Japanese colonial period and continues to the present day. However, until the Japanese colonial period, the local version was more important than the general version, but after the liberation, the general version gradually became the center. However, since the general version is not different from systemic geography, the more it is emphasized, the more its color as a Jiji is bound to fade. It is no exaggeration to say that chorography, which describes the region itself rather than approaching a region as a subject, is the essence of geography.

The JIAA was established in 1941 as one of the 8 largest arsenals of the Japanese imperialist and one of the two arsenals built outside the mainland, which were built for the design, production, and storage of weapons during the Japanese colonial period. The JIAA was located on a vast flat area around Sangok-ri[山谷 里] with good access to Bupyeong Station of the Gyeongin Railway. The JIAA formed a large-scale munitions industrial complex with a number of companies connected in forward-and-backward linkage, and on a national scale, it was one of the modern urban zoning planned in the Bupyeong area as part of the Gyeongin Regional City Plan[京仁市街計劃]. Today, the remnants of the JIAA remain in the Bupyeong-gu area of Incheon Metropolitan City, and recently there are often conflicts with the difference in position between the central and local governments, civic groups, etc. over the value evaluation and preservation of the landscape elements of the remains of the JIAA. One of the important prerequisites to resolve this difference in position and conflict is the mobilization of concepts and theories. Since the relic landscape of the JIAA is a colonial heritage, a modern industrial heritage, and a war heritage at the same time, they should be viewed in multiple heritage categories. And on the one hand, it is necessary to recognize the various zoning and landscape elements diachronically and comprehensively from the viewpoint of the formation and evolution of the early-modern urban landscape that caused the contrast with the traditional urban landscape and the restructuring of national land space. An approach based on these concepts and theories is critical in recognition of values, orientation of utilization, and application as a world heritage. From the point of view of approaching colonial early-modern heritage, especially industrial heritage, in post-colonial countries, it is necessary to be vigilant not to simply borrow from Western countries or Japan, which were former imperialists.","PeriodicalId":235419,"journal":{"name":"Institute For Kyeongki Cultural Studies","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116347065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Koreans' self-identity formation method is most characteristically revealed in the self-identity formation method within the family. South Koreans' personal sense of themselves tends to be always placed after their sense of themselves as the descendant of the genealogical origins of their lineage, and through this, their identity could be situated in the vertical lines of the local genealogy which originated from their ancestors. This means that, rather than the self as myself, the self as a child of my parents and the self as a descendant of my ancestors become the basis of self-identity formation. In order to trace the origin of such a unique cultural phenomenon in Korea, this thesis pays attention to two facts. First, the self-identity formation method of Koreans is the result of imitating the self-identity formation method of the noblemen of the Chosŏn Dynasty. Second, the reason why bloodlines can always be at the centre of the self-identity formation method of noblemen in the Chosŏn Dynasty is not only the single sociocultural condition of Neo-Confucianism, but also the result of adaptation to the geographical environment. For an empirical argument for this, an anthropogeographical case study is conducted on Darsil Village, one of Korea's representative yangban villages.","PeriodicalId":235419,"journal":{"name":"Institute For Kyeongki Cultural Studies","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130695000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

King Jeongjo's geographical policy questions includes seven questions such as the definition of geography, the reason for the existence of geography, the shape of the earth's surface, the division plan for the national territory for national prosperity, historical examination of the land area and major geographical names, and the management plan for the country's abundant products, customs, and resources, geography as a fundamental science of politics, and the direction of compilation of geography of the land. Dasan defines geography as a field that studies the human-nature relationship according to the five geographic environments, while arguing for the reason for the existence of geography as the king's discipline for national management. In this way, Dasan answered each question based on a variety of ancient oriental geography books, his extensive geographic informations, and historical geographies of the country. In the discourse of traditional geography between king Jeongjo and Dasan, the discipline of geography that thinks about the realization of social justice and humanistic politics[文治], the search for geography that breaks away from feng shui[風水] and the waters sutra[水經] that should be published to be paired with the geography book, and the need for mapping for completeness was discussed.
