[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Yoon Yoseop] The Ulsan Museum's Yaksadong Embankment Ruins Exhibition Hall announced on the 8th that it will temporarily close to carry out preservation work on the soil layer cross-section exhibits of the Yaksadong Embankment.

This soil layer cross-section preservation work will involve removing dust accumulated on the embankment cross-section, reinforcing cracks, and hardening treatment. Soil layer cross-section refers to a method of preserving the cross-section of soil layers by carefully removing soil according to a specific process.

The temporary closure will last for five days from the 13th to the 17th, and the exhibition hall will reopen for visitors from the 18th.

Lee Sangmok, director of the Ulsan Museum, said, “The soil layer cross-section in our exhibition hall is an exhibit that clearly shows the construction method of the Yaksadong Embankment, and preservation work has been conducted annually. Through this preservation, visitors will be able to see the soil layer cross-section that maintains its original form without further damage.”

The Yaksadong Embankment Ruins are embankment ruins where the construction method of the embankment was confirmed, and they were designated as National Historic Site No. 528 on September 16, 2014.
