안동 지역 전통 직물의 문화산업적 활용 방안

Abstract

Andong is recognized as a home of Confucian culture, with many traditional cultural inheritances there, such as Andongpo and the Hahwae Mask. Therefore, there have been several trials in Andong with a view to developing the traditional cultural industry with its own cultural character. However such trials have faced difficulties due to various environmental causes. By way of solving this current problem, local females have endeavored to modernize and globalize the excellent local traditional culture resources on show at Andong, such as Andongpo, Andong Hanji, Sangju Silk, and Natural Dyeing, which also utilize local green fabrics. Andong has also become associated with the wellbeing industry and, moreover, its links with the traditional cultural industry is of great interest and potential to the tourism industry. Despite the human, material and environmental assets it has, the traditional culture industry has not sought to develop itself as a whole. The reasons for this are: first, the effort required for managing human resources technically and using their potential are insufficient within the industry; second, there has been an insufficient level of effort applied for the creation of designs of traditional cultural products, as well as commercializing and publicizing it. There is an urgent need to have preparations and efforts directed towards an actuality that can applied to real life businesses, because there is currently a dwindling supply of adequate labor force for the task of participating in the ongoing preservation development of culture heritage. Therefore, local colleges, equipped with special human resources, and facilities connected with citizens should execute programs for the practical and efficient use of talented human resources. Contents and methods for this research were as follows: establish a human-network for individuals who work for traditional cultural industries in Northern Gyongbuk; collect basic materials about Confucian culture and traditional culture; research examples of foreign traditional cultural industries; analyze training programs for individuals who work in traditional cultural industries in Northern Gyongbuk. The policy proposals of regional development programs connected with the traditional green fabrics are as follows: systematize the farm holdings of traditional green fabrics and establish systems for the stable supply of raw materials; establish a design development center for traditional green fabrics; and make full use of investigations, facilities and human resources of local colleges. As part of ensuring the full use of training programs for strengthening human resource abilities, this includes: developing training programs that reflect the Confucian cultural context of Northern Gyongbuk; developing training programs that strengthen cross-industry collaboration; develop training programs that allow for improved co-operation with other cities; develop training programs that are related to the indigenous products of the region; develop training programs that are related to Green Design; arrange work-study programs and tour fashion shows around the Andong, Sangju and Yeongju areas; develop fashion innovation programs for green design; and develop global talent training programs connected with Andong National Mask Dance Festival.
