Now in its 24th year, the Daegyeong Branch Exhibition is designed to widely promote the skills of masters, which often seem distant to the general public, allowing close encounters with their craftsmanship. It also aims to instill pride in masters and artisans through the exhibition, thereby continuing the spirit of craftsmanship.
Since its first event in 2004, the Korea Masters Association Daegyeong Branch Exhibition has been recognized for significantly contributing to changing public perception of skilled trades and expanding the base of skilled workers over the past 20 years.
