World Cultural Heritage Namhansanseong Academic Symposium Information Poster

Gyeonggi Province will hold an academic symposium on the World Cultural Heritage site 'Namhan Fortress' on the 17th.

On the same day, Gyeonggi Province announced on the 14th that it will jointly host an academic symposium with the Gyeonggi Cultural Foundation at the Dasan Hall of the Gyeonggi Cultural Foundation under the theme "World Heritage Namhan Fortress, the Future of Narrative and Interpretation - A New Positioning of Argumentation and Creation."

The symposium was planned to seek new perspectives on Namhan Fortress and directions for discovering future-oriented values in celebration of the 10th anniversary of its World Heritage registration next year.

At the symposium, the current public perception of Namhan Fortress and the realities of major historical events will be reexamined, and the identities of Kim Sangheon, Choi Myunggil, and Noron, which have been generally known, will be newly reviewed.

Following this, from a world heritage perspective, Namhan Fortress will be highlighted beyond its architectural value as a history of civilizational evolution theory, and from a creative viewpoint, it will be reinterpreted and reborn through free interpretation.

The six keynote speakers include ▲ Yang Hundo, Editorial Writer at Incheon Ilbo (Implications of the Analysis of Namhan Fortress Educational and Cultural Content Postscript) ▲ Oh Suchang, Professor at Seoul National University (Reexamination of the Perception and Historical Reality of the Byeongjahoran and Namhan Fortress) ▲ Woo Kyungseop, Professor at Inha University (Kim Sangheon's Realism and Choi Myunggil's Principle Theory) ▲ Park Hyunmo, Sejong Leadership Research Institute at Yeoju University (Secrets and Limits of Noron's 160-Year Long-Term Rule) ▲ Kim Gibong, Professor at Kyonggi University (Namhan Fortress, from World Cultural Heritage to Global Civilization Heritage) ▲ Woo Jungkwon, Professor at Dankook University (Namhan Fortress Reborn through the Freedom of Fictional Creation). After the presentations, there will be in-depth mutual discussions and a free discussion involving the audience.

Kim Cheongwang, Director of the Gyeonggi Namhan Fortress World Heritage Center, said, "Through this symposium discussing new interpretations and future-oriented utilization of the World Heritage Namhan Fortress, we hope it will deepen understanding of Namhan Fortress and become a place to share new values."
