The Wando historical changes exhibition at the Culture and Arts Center showcases 38 photographic records from 1910 to the present under the theme "From the Foundation Stone of Cheonghaejin to the Cornerstone of the Marine Healing Industry."


Administrative artifacts are evidential materials representing the evolution of administration, possessing historical, cultural, artistic, and symbolic value as tangible records.


To raise awareness of the changes in administrative history and the importance of record management, over 40 administrative artifacts, including presidential citations, awards, statistics, and the guestbook from the memorial altar of the late former President Roh Moo-hyun, are displayed in the lobby on the first floor of the county library for residents to view.


A county official stated, "The ultimate goal of record management is to provide open service to the residents," adding, "We will continue to promote the preservation of records and the spread of record culture so that residents can experience various records in the future."
