Abstract

Taking cases of 'Kwangchun market place' that has enjoyed prosperity as a central market in Chungnam area for a long time, this research has intended to inquire into factors that weighed change on market place after modernization. A lot of logistics were collected and distributed to and from Kwangchun, the center place of inlet area of west coast, and what made Kwangchun take this role was the very conditions of its location where land route and maritime transportation crossed. As an important place that transportation of land and water cross, Kwangchun market place that has enjoyed the standing of the central market in Chungnam area for a long period, became to lose its advantages of its place because of developing of land transportation as a new wave of modernization reached, though it enjoyed prosperity from the period of Japanese imperialism's occupation by force until 1960s and 1970s. Nevertheless Kwangchun market place appear to have undergone relatively moderate changes. That's because Kwangchun market place was a major town that flourished for a long time, and as neighboring areas were delayed with their developing it maintained its function of market place in the certain level until mid and late of 1980s. But local developing and expansion of transportation line, which were stirred by local autonomous system that became in full-scale in 1980s, made the relationship of Kwangchun and neighboring areas changed in regular style, and whereas Kwangchun area escaped from the range of developing, the developing of neighboring 'Hongseong town' and 'Boryung city' became to be the factor that made Kwangchun market place stagnated in more visible way. However, Kwangchun did not stay in the frame of deterioration but overcame stagnation in certain degree by reorganizing its commercial power with the area's traditional product 'cave pickled shrimp' from mid-1990 until recently. This change is the outcome resulted from engaging of several complicated factors such as pickled shrimp's long tradition, the existence of storing caves that can be called local treasury warehouse, self-governing bodies' policies and resident's efforts, further opening of West-coast Highway. Now, Kwangchun market place is changing not as five-day interval village market but as the market place centered with weekends, holiday season and the season for preparing Kimchi for the winter.
