[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Lee Sang-hyun] The Yangsan City Museum in Gyeongnam has been renovated into a family-centered experience space that inherits the patriotic spirit of the ancestors and can be safely enjoyed in the COVID-19 era.

First, to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the death of Usan Yun Hyeon-jin, an independence activist from Yangsan, promotional materials on street lamps around the museum and caricatures of seven independence activists from Yangsan along with their achievements were exhibited in an easy-to-understand manner in the corridor at the entrance of the children's museum.

In the permanent history room, a corner introducing previously unreleased ceramics was prepared to promote Yangsan's ceramic culture ahead of this year's excavation of the Beopgido kiln site.

Also, a new "Small Exhibition of the Month" corner was established in the first-floor lobby, where selected masterpieces that could not be shown in the permanent exhibition were displayed in a separate room.

Some display cases in the ancient tomb room were replaced with "low-reflection glass cases" to allow visitors to appreciate the works more deeply without light restrictions.

The Yangsan History Materials Room expanded easily readable materials on the independence movement and established a "Small Art Gallery to View with Mom" corner, where visitors can feel as if they are viewing masterpieces from both Eastern and Western art in an actual museum.

For experiential activities, a "Sotdae for warding off evil spirits" was installed as a photo zone, along with "Making a Hope-Charging Kite" and "Writing Wishes on New Year's Wish Papers."

A museum official said, "The museum is regularly disinfected and strictly follows COVID-19 prevention guidelines," adding, "We hope families visit the museum and spend a small time of comfort for their weary hearts due to COVID-19."
