He also refers to a potter who constructs palaces, temples, and military facilities. The head of the ranch is distinguished from the small ranch in charge of small-scale carpentry, such as doors and handrails, and is responsible for the completion of the house by joining forces with the head of the wajang, dejab, Seokjang, Mijang, and Dancheong. Government posts were given during the Unified Silla, Goryeo, and Joseon periods, but today, the art of plowing has been passed down to the construction of temples, seowon, Hyanggyo, and Traditional Korean houses.

    Because the technique is strictly inherited, the gate is formed.

    A gate is a technique in which a family is created, and a burial ground in the gate has absolute authority.

    He introduced Traditional architectural techniques from his grandfather Shin Seong-jip (1877-1954), his father Shin Hyuk-mook (1921-1968), when he was 19 years old, and engaged in activities for transfer and research. Since 1999, his second son, Shin Tae-seon, has also joined the training program.

    Artistic aspects and characteristics include the use of Traditional Korean materials, following the Traditional wooden building process during the production process, and the use of drying techniques using smoke and flame inherited from one's father during the process of chi-mok. The characteristic of the tree is that each architecture does not have the same motif, creating a creative and decorative expression. In particular, design drawings that are difficult to see in other artisans are being prepared and constructed, and drawings drawn from 20 years ago have been kept. This is different from other artisans who draw professional designs themselves.

    Gimun Gate has been codified for generations to carry out active transfer and research activities, and it shows a local tradition to preserve the characteristics of the region and maintain its Traditionality. In terms of art, the use of Traditional materials, the production process of Traditional wooden architecture, the drying technique inherited from the father of the tree process, the representation of the design of different patterns, and the design drawings are directly drawn and constructed.

    Based on the fact that the ondol culture of the Korean Peninsula originated from the primitive form of heating system, which was installed in the Wonsamuk Dynasty through the Bronze Age, and that the ondol culture of the Korean Peninsula was discovered throughout the Korean Peninsula from the 3rd to 1st centuries B.C., it is estimated that the ondol culture of the Korean Peninsula was inherited for more than 2,000 years.Unlike a Western fireplace, our ondol has the advantage of being able to heat the room for a long time without generating smoke, as it is characterized by a fire-retardant floor heating that sits on top of the fire, rather than sending smoke directly to a high chimney.

    Ondol culture is Korea's overall residential culture, which includes not only floor heating and eco-environment utilization technologies, but also Korean living customs and norms. This lifestyle was popularized as an "ondol room" culture representing Korea, affecting not only housing, interior architecture, and furniture, but also popular culture.

    Marubang in response to the climate environment in summer and Ondolbang in winter are representative residential elements of Korea. Currently, Ondolbang is a unique residential Technology and cultural heritage of the Korean people, which are distinct from the floor heating methods in China and Manchuria. And while the Ondol culture undergoes technological development, changes in the formality of major residential spaces, and changes in lifestyle, the original floor heating method continues.

    As such, ondol culture has been inherited and continuously recreated for a long time and has a socio-cultural value that has influenced Korean society's main life and popular culture, and it is worth being a national intangible cultural asset in that it is a culture that has wisely adapted to and dealt with the harsh climate conditions facing the Korean Peninsula.

    ※ ※ Ondol culture has long been shared and customary among Koreans throughout the Korean Peninsula, so it does not recognize the holder or the group it owns and only designates it as an event.

    Wanchojang refers to an artisan with the skill of making objects with sedge (Cyperus exaltatus, wanggol in Korean), which is an annual/biennial plant that grows in a wet rice paddy or swamp. It grows to a height of 60 – 200cm. Sedge is used to make mats, seat cushions, and baskets.

    According to Samguk sagi (History of the Three Kingdoms), sedge was used during the Silla Period (circa 57 BC – 935 AD). During the Goryeo Period (877 – 1394), a sedge mat was laid on the place where the deities of the State are enshrined. Sedge mats were used chiefly in royal palaces, and they were also sent to China as gifts. During the Joseon Period (1392 – 1910), sedge mats were used mostly in royal palaces or in the homes of upper class people. In foreign trade, the mats made in Korea were regarded as luxury goods.

    Sedge products are made either manually or with tools. Mats and cushions are made either with a coarse weaving technique with warps exposed or with a close weaving technique with warps not exposed. As for the manual weaving method, eight warps are entwined to form a “井” shape and then two wefts are woven into it to make round or octagonal cushions and baskets.

    Production of sedge goods once went through the doldrums, but it regained strength in the 1970s and thereafter. Up to now, sedge has been used chiefly to make mats and baskets, but it can be used to make many other objects without the need for special tools by adjusting the colors and the thickness of warps and wefts.

    A Traditional self-prayer is a person or skill who makes himself or herself with Traditional techniques.

    Since the Neolithic Age, Korea has made and used earthenware, and in the early 10th century, it adopted pottery techniques from the Tang Dynasty of China to make inlaid celadon.

    Then, due to the Mongol invasions, celadon manufacturing techniques declined, and the production of buncheong ware and Joseon white porcelain became more active during the early Joseon Dynasty.

    However, the kilns were destroyed during the Japanese Invasion of Korea (1592) and many potters were taken to Japan, leading to the decline of ceramic Technology. Fortunately, Gwangju Gwanyo was the only one left, creating a large stem centered on Joseon white porcelain.

    The production process of Traditional porcelain involves the process of clay, plastic surgery, sculpture, poetry, plastic surgery, etc. The Zeto process breaks stones into powder, releases soil, mixes them, and undergoes a defensive process to remove impurities, and then builds up the clay. After the molding is over, place the crushed soil on a spinning wheel to form an object. After the molding is over, dry it and carve it with a knife.

    After that, the work is completed by baking, applying glaze, and finishing grilled chaebol. The production tools include a spinning wheel, bat, earth gourd, cart, water leather, iron holtae, necklaces, and electric knives.

    Traditional porcelain ware was designated as an intangible cultural asset to protect and transfer Korean beauty as a Traditional craftsmanship.

    Jang Song-mo of Gangwon-do, who has completed the production function of Traditional ceramics, continues his career by establishing the Gangwon Ceramic Culture Research Association.

    Traditional pots and jars, along with porcelain items, were the main items produced in private kilns. Pots and jars were made after the application of caustic soda to the surface of clay-made objects and putting them through a pre-firing stage. Just 40 or 50 years ago, there were many places selling Traditional pots and jars across the country. Their number stood at about 500 when surveys were made in 1968 and 1969. However, they have been pushed aside by their machine-made western cousins.

    Traditionally, caustic soda was used as glazing in the production of pots and jars. Recently, it was replaced by a lead oxide named Gwangmyeongdan. With the use of lead glazing, the quality of pots and jars declined and the number of Onggijeom decreased to about 250 by 1984 and to less than 199 by 1989. Stainless steel and plastic goods have pushed Traditional pots and jars out of the market.
