Abstract |
The Seodaemun Prison is a place where various aspects of the history and culture environment overlap and compete. In this study, we attempted to examine how the meanings of cultural assets, in terms of places with historical implications, are hidden and magnified according to changes in age and society. The value of culture examined through the transition process of Seodaemun Independence Park is the result of constant interaction and reinterpretation according to the situation of a given period, thereby reflecting societal values. In addition, the space, which was perceived as an obstacle on the past, has proven to have not only architectural significance but also regional and social value through the improvement of relationships with surrounding areas. This study analyzed the transition process of Seodaemun Independence Park along with international principles on historical and cultural heritages. If experts take a critical perception and implement the preservation policy, it will provide a great opportunity to strengthen interest in the authenticity of our cultural assets in the future. |
