Taekwondo is a modern martial art that is the birthplace of Korea, and is the national flag of Korea. It is a martial art that aims to effectively subdue the opponent by using hands, feet and other body parts centered on Bilchagi.

Records tell us that on the Korean Peninsula, embroidery started during the Three Kingdoms Period (circa 57 BC – 668 AD). During the Goryeo Period (877 – 1394), the practice became so widespread that it was adopted even on the clothes of ordinary people. As a result, embroidery was prohibited several times. With the start of the Joseon Period (1392 – 1910), the practice developed further and was divided into royal embroidery, exquisitely made by skilled court ladies, and the others. Looking at how a piece of embroidery is made, first the cloth to work on is fixed onto a frame and a rough sketch is made on it. Upon the completion of embroidery, the frame is shaken to remove dust. Then, a thin layer of paste is applied to the back of the embroidered surface so as not to let the stitches scatter. The embroidered piece is then placed in the shade to dry and removed from the frame. Embroidery has developed as a reflection of Koreans’ living environment, customs, and beliefs.

Dancheong refers to the coloring of dried vegetables and crafts, which are mineral pigments. Dancheong is advantageous for the preservation of timber, and it can cover the crude parts of wood, and it helps to make the building magnificent. Dancheong is a branch of Buddhist art that has been a long history of Korean history as an expression of Buddhist doctrines and ideologies.

In the past, people working in Dancheong were called Hwasa, Hwawon, Hwagong, and Dochaejang. If he was a monk, he was called a goldfish or a hwaseung.

Dancheongjang Lee Jeong-oh was taught traditional dancheong skills from the late monk Ilseop (former holder of intangible cultural assets) who was the head of the largest faction in Korea's Dancheong community. In 1974, he was the youngest (26 years old) to pass the screening test for a designated repair engineer (Dancheong Technician). After that, he worked hard to develop the golden patterns and surrounding patterns, which were the specialties of his teacher, Ilseob, along with the inheritance of traditional patterns and techniques.

In addition, the Chinese architectural chair's guidebook, "The Painting of the Painting of Yi Mingzhong's Royal Ancestral Code," was used to develop newspaper patterns.

Lee Jeong-oh's works include the Hapcheon Haeinsa Daeungjeon, Onyang Hyeonchungsa Hyeonchunggak, Yeongnamnu Pavilion, Jikji Daeungjeon Hall, and Deoksuam Daeungjeon Hall in Daejeon.

Following the genealogy received from his teachers, including the late Sin Eon-su (the holder of the Dancheongjang of Jeonbuk intangible cultural heritage) and the late Park Joon-ju, a former cultural property repair engineer, Kim Seong-gyu possessed the necessary skills as a dancheong technician, including the reproduction of dancheong style of traditional techniques. It also has a record of constructing dancheong at 350 major cultural properties, including national treasures and treasures, and has a well-equipped system, with many of its technicians continuing their careers. As above, he was recognized as the holder because he had sufficient qualifications and conditions.

He passed the plating and dancheong section of the cultural heritage Administration's cultural heritage Repair Technique in 1995 and 1996, respectively, and currently serves as a visiting professor at the Korean Traditional Culture University's Institute of Traditional Culture and Education. The collection of Dancheong works includes "The Seowon of 崋藏莊儼 at the end of a brush" (Hunminsa, 2004).

Dancheong refers to the technique of coloring a building or the result of its use, and Dancheongjang refers to a craftsman who does dancheong work. The area of dancheong has traditionally tended to encompass discord, and the recent learning process supports this perception. The history of Dancheong dates back to the Three Kingdoms Period. Damjing of Goguryeo, Baekje's Baekga and Silla's Solgeo are all considered to have been responsible for the responsibility of dancheong as painters who painted murals in temples.

Dancheong, which is painted on Buddhist temples and palaces with special authority, was used to extend the life span of the building and to serve as both a grandeur. Even among the buildings, the design choices and the degree of decoration were different, and the prestige was different. The royal palaces and the temple's Daeungjeon Hall were treated with a variety of Geumdancheong, Morodancheong, and Geukgi Dancheong. It embodies a bright pattern based mainly on five mineralized stone pigments.

Dancheongjang includes Yi Chih-ho, Kim Seong-su, Im Seok-jeong, and Hong Chang-won, who were designated as national intangible cultural assets, and many craftsmen are also working in the provinces through their respective transmission systems. Gyeonggi-do Province is the owner of Dancheongjang, and Kim Jong-wook (born 1937) was designated as the head of Dancheongjang in 1999.

Hwagak craft refers to crafts or techniques used to decorate the back by grinding iron horns thinly and drawing patterns. The artisan who works in hwagak is called hwagakjang. Hwagak crafts are unique characteristics of Korean crafts, which are not found in other countries, and show the characteristics of Korean woodcraft along with lacquerware. The origin is unknown, but the shell of a tortoise with similar characteristics was used during the Goryeo Dynasty's Najeonchigi, and the traces of the tortoise were evident after the late Joseon Dynasty.

Hwagak uses a ventriloquism technique that boils the horns of a bull aged 3 to 5 and spreads them in half to make a flat surface, then stirs them thin enough to show the back, drawing a pattern on the back. Not only does the complexion preserve the color well, but the color is also deeper, enhancing the quality of the craftwork. Each piece of the pattern is attached with a glue on the skeleton, and the cow bones are cut between the pieces to fix the boundary. However, it is not easy to preserve them because of the elasticity of the cones, which were originally cones, over time. Therefore, the process of preparing materials was complicated and cumbersome, and expensive, so it was used by the royal court and the minority ruling class.

The late Eumilcheon and Lee Jae-man were designated as national intangible cultural assets, while the late Han Chun-seop (1949-2015) of Gyeonggi-do was the only holder of the local incinerator. Han Chun-seop learned the art of painting by entering the Najeonchigi, and then learned the art of painting again under Eumilcheon. Currently, his son, Han Ki-duk, has been designated as an assistant instructor and is working hard to pass down his skills.

Drumming refers to the art of making traditional drums. The mastermind of the drumming was called "Kang Ssuhuan" in Chinese characters. The drum, which makes sounds by ringing animal skins, is considered one of the most primitive instruments. This is because the sound of leather moves the basic sensibility of human beings more than other materials. Therefore, the North has a very long history, regardless of which country it is, and South Korea is no exception.

The drum is divided into Jeongakyong, Buddhist temple, and civilian use according to its purpose, and there are many types of drum. In addition to Beopgo, Maegu Book for Nongak, and Sori Book for Pansori, there are 14 types of Jeongak, including Jugo, Yonggo, Yeonggo, and Gyobango, and others, which are commonly known as Beopgo, Maegu Book for Nongak, and Pansori, and Sogo and Janggo for private use. The janggu was originally produced separately, but is now included in the scope of the work of the drumming machine.

Drums with different names differ in form or method of making them for different purposes. The drum usually uses cowhide, but the janggu needs to use doghook to make its own sound. One of the key points of drumming is the making of the woolen canister and leather tanning technology. The tanning that deals with raw leather is now only partially transmitted. There are ways to cut down the inside of a log and to connect the sides of a tree to make a round ring. Among these, the technology to connect the sides of a tree is very demanding and difficult.

Bukmaeugi was recognized as a national intangible cultural asset by the late Park Kyun-seok and the late Yun Deok-jin. Currently, Gyeonggi-do Province is tying up and designating drum-maeugi for the musical instrument field. In 1999, Im Sun-bin (born in 1950) was recognized for his function, and his son is recognized as a son.

Im Dong-guk and other students are actively being taught to him.

The stringed instrument field among musical instruments refers to craftsmen who produce gayageum and geomungo. During the Joseon Dynasty, it was also called a pungryu or pungmungmuljang. The history of stringed instruments dates back to before the Three Kingdoms Period. The geomungo of six prefectures was invented by Wang Sanak of Goguryeo, and twelve lines of gayageum originated from Gaya. Geomungo was also referred to as Hyeonhakgeum, or cash, which means the most fundamental musical instrument, because black cranes gathered together at a solemn sound. Geomungo is a symbol of harmony among the Yaeak, the core of the political philosophy of oil prices, beyond entertainment, and was also a must-have item in the study of noblemen and scholars.

In addition to geomungo and gayageum, string instruments include Ajaeng, Haegeum, Daejaeng, Hyangbipa, Wolgeum, Wa Gonghu, Su Gonghu, and Yanggeum, among which Gayageum is largely divided into Jeongakyong and Sanjo. The main ingredient of the string instrument is an odong tree, which is used as an eulimtong, and chestnut wood, which is stronger than this, is used to support the sound. The craftsman who deals with stringed instruments thinks that the difference in sound quality is mainly related to the quality of the paulownia, so he puts his efforts into obtaining quality materials. Since ancient times, it has been widely recognized that the slow-growing Odong in the midst of barren rocks has a soft sound, and Seoksang-dong, recorded in "The Evil Scrolls," is related to this.

String instruments are among the areas that have been activated compared to other craft fields thanks to the success of Gugak. The late Kim Kwang-ju, Lee Young-soo, and Go Heung-gon have been recognized as national intangible cultural assets. In Gyeonggi-do, strings are tied and designated in the field of musical instrument No. 30-2. In 1999, Choi Tae-soon (born in 1941) was recognized for his function and actively taught to his son Choi Jung-wook and other students.

Sajikdaeje is a national rite given to the god of land and grain, while Sajik means the god of land, and Jik means the god of grain. In ancient times, when a country was established, a ritual was held to pray for the people to live comfortably in the land and grain gods. The memorial service for the resignation, which has been held since the Three Kingdoms Period, offers a glimpse into our ancestors' gratitude for nature.

King Taejo of the Joseon Dynasty established Jongmyo Shrine and Sajikdan Altar (Historic Site No. 121) along with the royal palace to set up Jongmyo Shrine on the east side of Gyeongbokgung Palace, Sajikdan Altar on the west, and Sajikdan Altar in each province to pray for the comfort and good harvest of the people. Sajikdan has assigned divisions (Taesasin and Futosin) and direct divisions (Tajiksin and Hujiksin) to the east and west). The ancestral tablets of Taiji and Taijik face north to the south of the Dansang, the huto god to the left of the Taoist god, and the latter to the left of Taijiksin.

Usually, ancestral rites were held in February and August, and a rain ritual was held in the event of a major national crisis or drought. The procedures and formalities for holding ancestral rites have changed little by little over time, but gradually we moved away from the stage of imitating the Chinese ways and had our own examples. Various kinds of grain including raw meat of cattle, pigs, and sheep are prepared today, and the rituals are held in the order of spirits, emperors, jinchan, choheonrye, aheonrye, Jongheonrye, Eokbokrye, Cheolbyeondu, Songsin, and Mangye (Mangye).

The music, dance, food, clothing, and rituals used in Sajikje, as well as our own ritual procedures for holding rituals, help us understand traditional culture. In 1894 (the 31st year of King Gojong's reign), the system was changed to the new government system, and was abolished by Japan's coercion in the 2nd year of King Sunjong's reign (1908). Since then, it was restored in October 1988 through the testimony of the late Yi Eun-pyo, who was the holder of the Jongmyo Jeryeondae. Currently, the Sajik Daejebongsa Committee, located within the Jeonju Yi Clan, preserves and inherits the Sajik Daeje.

Gurye Jansu Nongak is a nongak handed down from Sinchon Village in Sinwol-ri, Gurye-eup, Gurye-gun, and has the characteristics and characteristics of Honam Jwa-do Nongak.

This nongak is basically composed of Dangsan Jemanggut, Madangbapgi, and Panggut, and it retains its tradition as a village rite. Dangsan Jemanggut consists of a farming band performing a ritual at 10 a.m. every year on the day of the first lunar month.

After this rite, the Nongak band went to each house in the village and played Madangbapgi to defeat the evil spirits, which led to the participation of all villagers.례 Gurye Jansu Nongak is not handed down by a professional nongak group, but is a village nongak, which is run mainly by villagers. In the past, Jansu Nongak was so famous that its reputation was known not only in Gurye but also in neighboring Suncheon and Namwon.

In the past, documents related to the operation of nongak are also presented, including the "Nongakwi Family Rule" and the "Nongakwi Family Gyejae Reservoir" written since 1954, which record the principles and financial status of nongak.

''번장' refers to a craftsman who connects tiles on the roof tiles. Although it is not known exactly when tiles were used in Korea, it is presumed that they were used in earnest from the Three Kingdoms Period. Therefore, bungewagong started from this period.

Later, tile technology from the Three Kingdoms Period was further developed, and according to records, there was a craftsman named Dr. Wa, who went to Japan to deliver tile technology. During the Joseon Dynasty, '와서와서' was installed in the first year of King Taejo (1392) to produce tiles. In the sixth year of King Taejong's reign (1406), roof tiles were supplied from 'Byulwayo'. In Byulwayo, Buddhist monks, including wajang, were also assigned to produce tiles on a large scale.

There are two main types of wagong, one of which is called "wagong" or "wajang" as a tile maker, and the name "wagwakjang" was also used because a brick-making craftsman made it with a tile. The tile-roofing craftsman is called 'Gaejang', which is a name given to distinguish the tile-roofing craftsmanship.

The tile-making craftsman is called the "Bunwa-gong" because the tile-covering work is called the "Bunwa-gong" and the tile-covering work is called the "Bunwa-gong." The roof is a building element that forms Korean architecture and is one of the most expressive parts of the tradition of Korean architecture, and it is also the most beautiful part of Korean wooden architecture. The roof of a tile is one of the most important characteristics of traditional Korean architecture, and the shape of the roof depends on the bundle technology.

Cheon Cheol-seok meets Kim Chun-tae, Somokjang who was born in Gui-myeon, Wanju-gun in 1959 and held Seorabeol Crafts at the age of 13, and begins his journey to the small ranch.

He wandered around because he had no money to buy tools, and began to learn from the basics at the workshop of the late Cho Seok-jin, who was an intangible cultural asset ranch in Palbok-dong, Jeonju, and North Jeolla Province.

Even when traditional craftsmen were losing their jobs due to the advent of the industrialization era, Chun Cheol-seok insisted on the work of a small ranch, and won several awards including silver at the 1980 Jeonbuk Skills Competition, silver at the 81st national Skills Competition, gold at the 1983 Jeonbuk Skills Competition, two times at the 1997 and 1998 Korean Traditional Crafts Competition, and second-class furniture and Changho Production Technicians in 1998.

Cheon Cheol-seok, who completed the function of Jeonjujang, is making a field using zelkova and oak tree. On October 24, 2014, it was designated as Jeollabuk-do intangible cultural Property No. 19-4 Wood Furniture Small Ranch.

Fraud means a person or a person who makes a bowl form by mixing white clay, etc., and then makes a bowl baked at a high temperature of 1300°C or higher.

In the late Joseon Dynasty, when government-controlled ceramics were closed, potters scattered across the country, and folk songs (where ceramics are made in the private sector) flourished in the provinces.

Banggok-ri, Daegang-myeon, is also widely known as one of the places where folk pottery was produced during the Joseon Dynasty, and potters who are still making traditional pottery are still active.

In particular, Seo Dong-gyu, a functional holder, was born and raised there and has been devoted to making starch. In the early days, tea cups centered on Dawan were well received by Japanese favorite artists, and melodies were reproduced using natural yuak.

Banggok-ri Melting has a unique characteristic that it does not spoil, cool quickly, and does not stick to the fat.

In addition, the intense lines, majestic shapes, and delicate yet soft droplets that appear during baking in a pine fire kiln are aesthetic expressions that no one can imitate.

The production process is as follows.

1 Prepare to remove firewood with pine trees directly removed from Hwangjeongsan Mountain

2 Mud mixing (making sand soil) with soil enriched with granite

3 Digging the sand and putting it in the water

4 Rinse out the water a few times

5 Drying soil

6 To knead and knead dry earth

7 Molding on a dough spinning wheel

8 Use fire above 900°C for 3 hours

9 Apply glaze made of lye (because it is fragile)

10 Cooking glazed bowls for 16 hours on a light fire

11 Applying ashes to burn elm trees



* Functional holder Seo Dong-gyu

Seo Dong-gyu was born in Danyang, North Chungcheong Province, in 1938 and entered Banggok pottery in 1956. Starting with the Gyeonggi-do Folk Art Competition, he will participate in various exhibitions, including the Dong-A Art Festival's entry into the craft section, the Korea Art Exhibition's special selection of the craft section, the Korea national Exhibition, the Korean Traditional Ceramics Exhibition at the Hawaii Invitation Hall in the U.S., and the Tokyo Exhibition in Japan.

Seokjeondaeje is a ritual held at Munmyo Shrine, which honors Confucius, and is also called Munmyo Daeje or Seokjeonje (a ritual for raising meat and playing music). There is no record of when Confucianism was introduced to Korea, but it is assumed that the ritual was conducted in accordance with the ritual customs of ancient China based on the record that Taehak (national University for Confucian Education) was established in the second year (372) of King Sosurim of Goguryeo.

Seokjeon Daeje is held every February and August in memory of the virtues of Confucius and other saints. The procedure is carried out in the order of Yeongsinrye, Jeon Lungrye, Choheonrye, Gongak, Ahheonrye, Jongheonrye, Eokbokrye, Cheolbyeon, Song Sinrye and Mangjae. Music is called Munmyo Jeryeak, which is a Daesung aak that collectively refers to instrumental music, vocal music and dance, and only eight sub-acids are used, and two bands of dungga and Hunga are played alternately according to the procedure.

Currently, 15 palaces including Songs of Songs and Imjonggungs were adopted during the reign of King Sejong (r. 1418-1450) during the early Joseon Dynasty, including Songsingok, Hwangjonggung Palace, and Songsin Hyeopjonggung Palace.

Seokjeon Daeje is a national event, which is held in a quiet and solemn atmosphere, and has a comprehensive artistic character where music is played and dance is accompanied.
