Such a geopolitical division has played a critical role in recent Russia-Ukraine relations and conflicts, including the 2014 Crimean Crisis, the Donbas War, and the Russo-Ukrainian War. This study casts a question as to why Ukraine shows a noticeable geopolitical division. Geographical distances or proximities do not provide a proper answer to that question; for example, eastern Ukraine was the spatial background of the spread of Ukrainian nationalism in the 19th century. In this respect, this study adopted the multiscalar approach to analyze various scalar factors and actors and their relations that influence the geographical division of Ukraine. The results of this study suggest that multiscalar factors and actors, including the change of Ukrainian territories and the scalar differences in the influence of Russia caused by the territorial change, the geographical scale of Ukrainian industry and economy, the state-building of Ukraine in the post-Soviet era, and neighboring states’ influences and diplomatic strata and their interrelations, The results of this study may provide significant contributions to an in-depth understanding of the geopolitical characteristics of Ukraine and international and geopolitical issues related to the country.","PeriodicalId":268197,"journal":{"name":"The Association of Korean Cultural and Historical Geographers","volume":"50 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":"124404025","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}

Until now, ‘new urban tourism,’ in which tourists are interested in locals’ daily lives, has been considered a tourist-led phenomenon, so research on the role of local people has not been fully conducted. However, local people are already key actors in local tourism through online platforms and their role in post-COVID-19 tourism is expected to become more important. As a result of the study, the way local people know and participate in the platform and the motivation for hosting are interrelated, and the effects of hosting vary depending on it.

In the selected cultural commentary, the storytelling tool(material) presented in this study can provide more useful information to cultural tourists. In the case of Eumtaek(Grave) Cultural Heritage, various storytelling of historical figures with traditional geographical content such as feng shui increases tourism income and contributes to the local economy by attracting local tourists.

The artistic and aesthetic landscape of the Fontainebleau Forest was represented as a work of art through the gaze of the 19th century painters. Through the activities of these artists, who were also visitors, the forest became an artistic conservation area and a beloved place for Parisians, and the landscape gradually began to be protected as an institutionalized heritage. On one hand, tourism could be seen as an opposite concept to forest conservation, but on the other hand, the aesthetic and historical value of the landscape has been developed together as a tourism component. Local governments and actors are trying to preserve the landscape and the identity of place through the development and promotion of artistic visits, following the footsteps of painters. In the ever-expanding concept of heritage, this case study shows the necessity of an integrated approach to understanding the interaction between cultural and natural heritage, and the possibility of developing organically in relation to landscape and art rather than a separated policy.","PeriodicalId":268197,"journal":{"name":"The Association of Korean Cultural and Historical Geographers","volume":"9 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":"125627128","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}

Recent discussion features the thicket of analogies identified with new cultural geography as well as the rhetoric of performativity decreed by the affective turn. However there remains a critical caveat in that landscape interpretation has been pursued on the sole backdrop of daytime. Nighttime scenery has been muted with few attempt to interpret the real and symbolic meanings and consistently marginalized in landscape studies. It is the advent of 24-hour life style in tandem with the post-industrial consumer society that allows cityscape to see the light of night. In this article I try to test the plausibility of D. Meinig’s ten versions of an ordinary landscape by loitering along the streets of Seoul in an attempt to look into a diversity of everynight urban landscapes amid floods of incandescent electric lights. The journey conforms that Seoul’s nightscapes have multiple meanings of nature, habitat, artifact, system, problem, wealth, ideology, history, place and aesthetic in line with Meinig’s conceptualization. It is time to further the discourse by relying on such highly insightful metaphors as text, theatre, carnival, spectacle, ways of seeing, symbol, sign and icon.","PeriodicalId":268197,"journal":{"name":"The Association of Korean Cultural and Historical Geographers","volume":"97 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":"127224271","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}

Many past dictators used their political powers to express and implement their interests and development in particular parts of the nation’s past. In the two case studies used in this study, we found that the politics of heritage during South Korea’s dictatorship period served a common goal and we argue that there is a need to focus on how neglecting certain sites and selecting certain sites were intentionally done to fabricate narratives about certain heritage sites and also to justify the dictator’s unorthodox assumption of political power. In order to examine how national land and national heritage became intertwined to serve political purposes, this article refers to two regions of South Korea during the Park Chung Hee regime; one neglected site and one selected site.

The results of the study are as follows: First, Korea’s modernization process created an ideological rurality with a patriarchal character and ethnic purity, which created contradictions with rural reality. Second, ideological rurality began to be threatened by the changing rural society due to the influence of modernization, and the fear of rural society evoked in this process was embodied as a suicide problem for rural bachelors. The death of a rural bachelor emerged as a nationwide social problem because it was linked to the maintenance of patriarchal authority and the Korean ethnics. Third, the rural bachelor marriage project, as a solution to the suicide problem, has marginalized rural areas into a feminine and racial space, following the sexist and racist genealogy of Korean urban women, ethnic women, and underdeveloped women. This study revealing the sexist and racist ways of representing rural areas today in historical and spatial contexts is meaningful in that it has opened up a new approach to understanding inequality in Korean rural areas.","PeriodicalId":268197,"journal":{"name":"The Association of Korean Cultural and Historical Geographers","volume":"23 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":"116626510","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}
