근대역사문화공간에 대한 경관 및 도시재생 인식 차이 연구

Abstract

This study explores the activation of near-modern historical and cultural spaces through an analysis of their evolution and changes in spatial significance. It involves on-site investigations and comparative analyses between different groups (the general public and experts) to examine the current status and perceptional characteristics. First, in the analysis of the current general status of near-modern historical and cultural spaces, eight sites are currently designated as near-modern historical and cultural spaces, with an average registered area of 55,260 square meters per site. In terms of utilization of individual registered cultural heritage sites, more than half of the sites in Mokpo Near-Modern Historical and Cultural Space, Yeongju Near-Modern Historical and Cultural Street, Gunsan Inland Port Historical and Cultural Space, and Jinhae Near-Modern Historical and Cultural Space are currently being utilized. Besides, most of the terrain is flat, and key landscape features such as rest areas and planters contribute to the streetscape. However, it is noted that there is a need for expanded installations in available vacant spaces. Second, in the landscape domain, it was observed that experts perceived the landscape of the Iksan Somni Near-Modern Historical and Cultural Space more favorably compared to the general public. This difference in perception could be attributed to the fact that the general public may perceive the space as it appears during their travel and tourism visits or history and culture experiences, without considering its potential for future development, whereas experts may have evaluated it more positively, taking into account its future growth possibilities. Besides, in the case of Yeongdeok Yeonghae Mart-site Street Near-Modern Historical and Cultural Space, it was noted that experts perceived the landscape less favorably compared to the general public. This discrepancy in perception could be attributed to inadequate understanding of the region’s characteristics and status due to frequent changes of the personnel responsible for the administrative affairs. The people in charge may have assessed the landscape solely based solely on its scale, leading to a less favorable perception for landscape. Third, in the urban regeneration domain, both the Yeongdeok Yeonghae Mart-site Street Near-Modern Historical and Cultural Space and the Seocheon Pangyo Near-Modern Historical and Cultural Space were perceived less favorably in terms of urban regeneration by experts compared to the general public. This is believed to be because, during the survey, the general public who were mostly local residents had a more positive perception of their own living environment. In the case of the Iksan Somni Near-Modern Historical and Cultural Space, experts perceived urban regeneration more positively compared to the general public. This seems because experts appear to have a higher perception of urban regeneration compared to the general public since they accurately understand that urban regeneration projects are being carried out in conjunction with cultural heritage preservation efforts. This suggests the need for regional specialization and policy capacity to enhance public awareness and understanding of urban regeneration, especially among the general population.
