일제강점기 부산 해운대의 여가시설에 관한 연구

Abstract

This study aims to explore the historical function and significance of leisure facilities in Haeundae, Busan and to further examine the historical significance of the Japanese tradition of developing hot springs, beaches, seaside schools, and camps. The results found that leisure facilities in Haeundae, Busan, have served both traditionally and currently as favored resort locations for Busan citizens and have been used by students as locations for mental and physical health training. However, these facilities pose limitations as most were developed by Japan and mainly used by Japanese people. Further, the opening of the Donghae Nambu Railroad helped promote Haeundae's reputation as the best resort in the Joseon Kingdom, and these leisure facilities are comparable to others in Korea and abroad today. Based on the findings of this study, it can be concluded that the leisure facilities of Haeundae have been maintained throughout the history and continue to hold the position of the best resort facilities in Korea.
