Abstract

Eunpyeong Hanok Village, the Korean traditional village located in Jingwan-dong, Eunpyeong-gu, which has enjoyed reputation as a propitious site for one thousand years, is the “Korean Culture Experience Specialized District.”It began with the purpose of creating Eunpyeong-gu’s unique tourism brand, characterized by the combination of the picturesque natural scenery of Mt Bukhan and tradition such as hanok, which refers to Korean-style houses, Korean language and Buddhist temples. Although Eunpyeong Hanok Village is an important tourism attraction for the development of Eunpyeong-gu, there have not been various studies conducted on the village so far. Around the village are historically important cultural factors including Mt Bukhan, Jingwansa Temple and Samcheonsa Temple. This study, therefore, tried to examine the process to transform Eunpyeong Hanok Village into a cultural and tourism resource. To begin with, the study investigated the concept and types of hanok villages and then, based on this, explored the characteristics of hanok villages as a cultural and tourism resource. In addition, the study examined cases in which traditional houses at home or abroad have been used as cultural and tourism resources and analyzed suggestions from the cases. Furthermore, it aimed at investigating the current situation of Eunpyeong Hanok Village and analyzing and substituting the identity, local features and local conditions of Eunpyeong area based on hanok and the cultural and tourism resource factors of hanok villages, which include experience, education and healing, and the tree factors mentioned above, thereby seeking the strategy to turn Eunpyeong Hanok Village into a cultural and tourism resource.
