Abstract |
This study aimed to examine the relationship between the three symbolic spaces in Seoul (Yeoido Park, Seoul Plaza, and Gwanghwamun Plaza) and interpret the aspects that are reflected in their forms. To achieve it, the authors classified and interpreted the information and criticism related to the three spaces on the newspaper articles, columns, readers' opinions, and professional monthly magazines according to the space, issues, and discussion. From earning status as the representative spaces of Seoul to being completed and used, these articulated spaces in newspapers and monthly publications were covered following spatial reflections. First, Discussion in the course of space change is then referred to as the background in which other spaces are created, or in the form and components of the spaces created. Next, these three spaces were repeated common form characteristics, which are vertical and traditional aspects, and incomplete flatness through the process of elimination and creation of space, establishment and retention of a plan, and restarting of the plan. As a result, these three spaces in Seoul performed their role as the flat land that could adopt all of the concepts that were demanded in the representative spaces regardless of the character of the park or plaza. |
