This study is basic research which aims to compare and analyze changes in rural areas in modern times. The main purpose of this study is to comprehend the characteristics of changes in the Korean rural landscape and to suggest the implications for preservation and maintenance of the rural landscape. To help in understanding the rural landscape systematically, it should be divided into six types: housing landscape, cultivation landscape, green landscape, waterside landscape, streetscape and symbolic and religious landscape. According to this step, the contents and the procedures of changes were analyzed generally. Based on the literature review and field survey, the styles of changes were deduced to be formation, alternation, relocation, damage and restoration on landscape elements. Lastly, it was concluded that complex changes of landscape in rural areas from the government's development policy have been continued from macroscopic changes like overall structure and system of landscape to microscopic changes like shape, material, size and color of each landscape element. Rural villages which have not had the government's development policy applied to them may not be appropriate for this study. However, this study has significance in that it can suggest the direction for desirable rural planning. Future studies need to consider landscape change through not only the development policy but also economic, social and cultural factors.

Nowadays, in the European countries, landscape is spoken of its importance as often as environment, by those who are engaged in such fields as politics, administration, research and civil society. In Korea, while recognizing such an international trend, academics and administrators have made a series of efforts to reflect landscape concept on a variety of policies. However, it is recognized that the effects of these policies have not been satisfactory. Under these circumstances, this paper aims to examine the complex values and multiple meanings in the landscape, which have been discussed by landscape experts in the European countries. Then, it aims to the explore the future direction of policy and research on the landscape to be pursued in Korea, where there is relatively less interest in the issues of landscape. It is argued that landscape should be approached and understood from a holistic perspective, because it is a very complex concept with multiple meanings that have been coined differently depending on the situation. All the academic fields, involved in the landscape research, should try in co-operation to develop the comprehensive approach rather than the inter- and multi-disciplinary approach to the landscape study. In Korea, moreover, it is also necessary in the legislation to recognize the fact that degradation and retreat in the quality of landscape would make a negative effect on the quality of human daily life. Natural and cultural heritages contained in the rural landscape are also now in danger of disappearing. These heritages, therefore, should become an important subject for research and policy on landscape before the countryside is completely evacuated after the aging population die out. To make this happen, it is very urgent that evaluation and classification of landscape character should be undertaken from the holistic perspective, which is equipped with a methodology overcoming as well as encompassing the boundaries of academic fields. It is also equally very urgent that education on landscape should be provided to the politicians, citizens and students as well as the officials dealing with landscape matters. Finally, government should strive to make the landscape concept penetrate deeply as well as widely into the spatial planning and legislation process while designing and implementing a comprehensive landscape policy at the national level.

본 연구의 주제지인 북촌은 600년의 역사를 지닌 서울의 유일한 한옥지역이다. 1999년 북촌의 경관이 훼손되기 시작하자 지역 내 주민단체의 요청으로 '북촌 가꾸기'가 시작되었다. 과거 북촌을 보존하기 위한 여러 정책들이 있었지만 이는 단지 한옥보존을 위한 정책이었기 때문에 북촌의 정책은 지역적 가치가 결여되어 있었다. 2001년부터 2006년까지 실행된 북촌 가꾸기는 북촌을 변화시켰으며 아직 까지 남아 있는 보완해야 할 점은 현재 북촌의 가로경관은 보차분리가 되어있지 않아 보행환경이 열악하거나 석재와 전돌 등을 사용하여 보차분리가 되어있는 상태이다. 이러한 점을 더욱 보완한다면 보다 낳은 북촌의 모습을 기대해 볼 수 있을 것이다.

This study applied GIS to land planning and management to conserve moun¬tain landscape, and to prevent landslide by housing development around a mountain in a city. In a case study of Kugi & Pyungchang- Dong area of Pukhan Mt. in Seoul, the landscape elements are divided into 'natural landscape conservation, ' 'visual landscape structure, and 'landslide prevention.' These elements are analysed by GIS TIN and OVERLAY modules. land¬scape classes and land use zoning maps for landscape management were developed.

Outdoor advertising signs of sity is recorgnized as the most basic element forming street scenes of city as well as establishing the citys identity in firsthand and secondhand. It has just started by commercial measure but recntly, in the rapid economical growth and diversified social structure a grent number of business have been generated so that is brings an absoluce increage of kind and quantity in outdoor advertising signs. Such quantitative increase has caused now envirenmental city problems so a more effective control of outdoor advertising signs and sophisticatided and logical design is needed. Thus, I would like to set up the direction with street scenes of city can be formed through this study. Firstly, understanding the concept, special features, and strong, weark points of street scenes of city and outdoor advertising signs. Secondly, in present sitiation analysis, studing and comparing the chracteristic of our present outdoor advertising regulations with those of Japanese regulations. Thirdly performing the reserch upon now advertising signs can be influentia in city scenes and thereafter, issuing possible problem censequantly, I would like to suggest the direction of control policy of outdoor advertising signs as following (1). Leading differentiation of each reggion for the solution of environmental and scenic problem. (2). Non-realistic advertising regulation are needed to be amended for uping changing outdoor advertising signs. (3). Advertising problems should be settleed through effectiveness of outdoor advertising signs administration. (4). The problem of advertising agenics should be leaded short term and long term plan. (5). Collection of scenic pollution should be operated for building up a scenic and community consciousness. Therefore, with these suggestion of clear direction of polish, the improvement of city scenes and regional differentiation followed by activated local autonomy system can be induced so that a more beautiful city scenes can be achiveved.

The World Heritage Committee decided to make "cultural landscapes" a world heritage category in the 16th Session of the UNESCO General Conference. The decision was made from a recognition of the importance of interactions between human beings and the natural environment or between cultural heritage and natural heritage. Many countries have created policies and institutions to protect their own cultural landscapes along with the changing times. Korea, however, has not obviously defined the concepts and categories of its cultural landscapes, but manages policies and institutions based on the concept of a scenic spot, which has some similar meanings. In addition, it even borrows the "list of landscape adjectives," one of the representative methods for managing landscapes, from foreign countries. With this background, this paper suggested how to define cultural landscapes according to the global development flow. It created a list of cultural landscape adjectives by gathering the adjectives that can properly express local cultural landscapes in Korea. In particular, it collected 4,556 articles from a local newspaper by focusing on the case of Shinan-gun, Jeollanam-do, and analyzed key words and adjectives included in them by using big data analysis. The results suggested by this paper, such as the "classification table of cultural landscape types," "list of cultural landscape adjectives" and "network map of nouns/adjectives" can be applied to research on other localities, and furthermore, used as basic data for finding and protecting the characteristics of local cultural landscapes in Korea.

Gyeongju, with its thousand-year-old history of the Silla Dynasty, is an impressive historical city where beautiful nature of mountains in the background and rivers in its front is getting along with the city landscape. The historic landscape of Gyeongju is divided into three groups: the old town, the ruins preservation region in the southeast of old towns, and the natural landscape region surrounding these regions. The old town region shows a common landscape of which general small cities in Korea may have, while its surroundings display the overlaps of natural and historic landscapes. The special city landscape is presented only in Gyeongju. Nevertheless, the northern area of the old town was built based on the concept of new towns without any height restriction of buildings, damaging the historic landscape of Gyeongju. It is misjudgment by interpreting the cultural heritage as the individual artifact rather than the continuous historic landscape. Since the 1970s when rapid industrialization and urbanization appeared along with the comprehensive development for Gyeongju tourism, the historic landscape has been slowly damaged. There were not enough financial and political supports from the central government, because the project for Gyeongju tourism was focused on the investment on the tourist industry. Now, in order to preserve the historical city like Gyeongju which represents the culture of Korea, the central government should actively engage in its protection. Policies of the central government should be focused on educating people that the historical restoration of Gyeongju is a way of recovering the national pride, and drawing the agreement of people. For its accomplishment, the government should change its policy from economy-oriented to culture-oriented. That is, the cultural policy should be emphasized.
