Murals in villages revitalize communities and spaces, and are economically efficient. Central and local governments are therefore actively undertaking Mural Village Projects but there are some issues and concerns about the projects for the provision of uniformed landscapes for the regions that are the result of a short-term completion of projects, and instead of cohesion, cause destruction of place identities. In addition, the problem of sustainable landscape management that is the result of low community involvement can be pointed out because the murals are products of government-led projects. The study covered the context of landscape and space change processes from a critical perspective, and focused on Ihwa-dong Mural Village, which is considered the first mural village in Korea and has begun to undergo drastic changes due to attention received from media. The purposes of this study are as follows. First, the study provides data about difference of place identity perception and landscape preference between residents and tourists in Ihwa-dong Mural Village. Second, this paper evaluates the current Mural Village Projects and finds alternative directions to improve the projects by using these data. This paper analyzed tourist hot spots in Ihwa-dong Mural Village by using SNS analysis, a field study and focus group interviews. The difference of place identity perception and landscape preference was examined among three groups: residents, new residents who are invited by Mural Village Projects, and tourists. This study showed that many tourists are focused on landscape areas that were not intentionally constructed projects. In addition, the locations of preferred landscapes and stores overlapped. Meanwhile, using qualitative data analysis, it was found that residents perceived the area as being an under-privileged location, while the murals, a non-daily landscape, largely affected place identity perception of new residents and tourists. For landscape preference, tourists preferred outdoor rest areas, while new residents and residents preferred less. Additionally, new residents and tourists preferred an area's night view while residents made no mention of this. Related to the direction of the projects, three groups showed their dependence on the government. This empirical study is significant from a participatory design perspective and in analyzing the issues for mural villages' landscapes, which are spreading across the nation and proceeding without criticism in urban regeneration. Implications for urban planners and suggestions for the future projects are given.

The aim of this study is to identify the spatial foundation units required to execute a rural village landscape plan. Though there have been various previous studies on spatial foundation units for rural space and landscape elements, they are limited in clarifying the landscape identity of a rural village unit in creating a feasible a rural village landscape plan. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the natural spatial features of a rural village and then establish a landscape identity for each space by exploring the landscape elements for each rural village unit set as the basic unit. Accordingly, the basic spatial unit was analyzed through a 1:5000 scale mapping by applying geomancy theory to the spatial landscape unit in a naturally generated rural village. The spatial limitations for a rural village landscape were set based on the analysis. Afterwards, a field study on the feasibility of whether or not setting a space as the basic unit for landscape could have a sense of identity as a single landscape unit for verification was processed, and the spatial limitations for the landscape were adjusted. Moreover, landscape elements were investigated by classifying landscape resources based on rural amenity resources which have been diversely researched in terms of the set spatial boundaries, and the sense of identity for each landscape foundation unit was looked into. While the numerous preceding studies focused on exploring the rural landscape value and findingout the sense of identity on landscape elements, it is high time for feasible and applicable studies in conducting region-specific landscape plans. In particular, similar outcomes from all landscape plans, even those with the same purpose established in various regions, is not a desirable outcome. Therefore, a basic framework is needed to discover the landscape identity generated by each plan in a rural area space. In this sense, this study is significant in that itcan be utilized to establish spatial identity of each region and landscape features of each rural village, and come up with realistic alternatives in landscape plans for each region by exploring the landscape identity in each specific space divided per watershed in a single zone.

이 논문은 '경관'과 '기호'표상에 근거한 지역학흡의 실제를 제시하기 위한 것이다. '경관'과 '기호' 표상은 오랜 역사적인 과정을 통해서 그 지역에서 구성된 지역적인 담론을 보다 구체적인 형태로 보여주는 것이므로 지역정체성 향상에 크게 기여할 수 있다. 오랜 역사적인 과정 속에서 형성된 지역담론은 각각의 시대적인 맥락에 따라 다양한 층위를 지니고 있다. 따라서 지역 담론은 지역의 변화된 모습에 대한 이해뿐만 아니라 오늘날의 지역을 이해하는 데에도 도움을 줄 수 있어 지역학습의 중요한 지표가 될 수 있다. 나아가 '경관'과 '기호'표상은 그 지역 사람들의 생활세계를 구성하고 있는 중요한 요소이므로 학습자의 삶과 유리되지 않는 지역학습을 할 수 있다는 점에서 커다란 의미가 있다고 본다.

In the world, the flow of globalization are causing that many cities in the world are trying to enhance city awareness and city image through the establishment of their identity. Seoul has also preceded various studies in order to establish its identity of the urban landscape in this flow. But, most of studies have only considered some of the problems of the urban landscape and its improvement. Therefore, a study to understand the current built urban landscape and its own identity has not been studied yet. In this study, we propose an analyzing and visualizing framework of the urban landscape through an internet survey using the compare contents based on the differences in Cognition and recognition. The core of the framework which analyses the differences in Cognitions and recognition about the urban landscape was performed by the correct and clear rate. In addition, it was extracted from the answers of the survey and the visualization, was performed by diagrams of accuracy rate that was derived from the correlation between the correct rate and the clear rate.

도시경관에 있어서 이를 구성하는 시각적 요소로서의 도시시설물, 건축물 등의 주변 환경과의 조화는 도시의 정체성 및 이미지를 결정 짖는다. 현대 서울을 비롯한 국내 대부분의 도시는 난립된 간판과 도시시설물들이 주변 환경과 조화롭지 못하고 지역마다의 고유색이 사라지고 어느 도시나 비슷하게 획일화되어 있다. 이에 따라 우리나라 도시들은 고유의 도시 정체성을 찾아보기 어렵게 되었으며, 세계적 수준에 못 미치는 실정이다. 이러한 문제점이 개선되기 위해서는 장기적인 도시경관디자인 개선이 시급하다고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구에서 국내 도시경관디자인 현황을 파악하고 문제점을 분석함으로써 추후 국내 도시경관의 체계적인 개선방안을 제시하는데 자료로 사용 가능케 한다.

지난 몇 십 년간 한국사회는 급격한 도시화와 시-공간 압축을 겪었다. 이러한 변화는 한편으로는 정체성 혼란을 심화시켰으며, 다른 한편으로는 여가시간의 증대를 초래하고 있다. 이 정체성 혼돈과 여가의 증대 경향이 대중들로 하여금 ‘삶의 질’요구를 제기하게 하였다. 이 논문에서는‘삶의 질’향상이 자연과 장소에 대한 문화적 감수성 회복을 통하여 이루어질수 있다고 주장한다. 여기서 문화적 감수성이란 자연과 장소에 대한 심미를 의미한다. 16세기의 위대한 유학자 퇴계 이황의 경관독해처럼, 유교적 자연미는 숭고미가 아니라 자연합일 감성이다. 유학자들은 이러한 자연에 자신을 합일(정체화)하는 감성을 가지는 것을 최선의 일상적 실천으로 삼았다. 생생불식하는 자연의 모습을 ‘천지의 마음’으로 보고, 그것을 체득하는 것에 자기수양의 궁극적 목적을 두었기 때문이다. 퇴계는 자연합일이 아니라 거주 과정에서 형성된 인간-자연 간이 감성적 연계에 관한 것이다. ‘삶의 질’추구는 인간과 자연생태계 간의 심각한 단절을 극복하기 위한 참된 거주경험에 대한 욕구이다. 우리는 유학자의 ‘자연합일’감성으로부터 진정한 거주경험을 배울 수 있다.

Social geography in Korea has been studied centering around urban social geography which has been developed mainly in English world, and then there have been a few concepts and theories that were tested in the rural social geography of Korean rural landscape. This article tried to grasp the conceptual basis of German social geography, and had views on the rural social geography in the relent English world. As a result, the author concluded that the rural landscape would be a representation of rurality, a component of local and national identity, and thought to be not only a physical reality but social, mental, cultural reality On the basis of this consideration, the author explored major concepts which would correspond with the universality and speciality of Korean rurality. They are as follows: 'lineage group' as a geographical socio-group, the 'regionalization' by social groups, and 'the territoriality of settlement' as a social space.
