Animation is an important tool to establish the identity of mutually related countries, as cultural contents with the economic value. That is, it is necessary that the Korean animation should extend the previous boundary of exchange, for the status of representative cultural industry in the 21st century global market. Especially, to overcome the regionally prejudiced and unbalanced cultural exchange, the possibility of extension with Czech animation, which has not had an active exchange with Korea, will be considered and the efficient method will be proposed. The Czech Republic is geopolitically located in the center of Europe and its infrastructure like industrial construction, investment environment, human resources is outstanding among Visegrad Group. The Czech Republic has a remarkable cultural border-crossing phenomenon, and as a complex country of cultural and religious characteristics of eastern and western European, it is a powerful nation leading Central Europe. Therefore, the animation exchange of Czech and Korea is valuable in culture and economy of both nations. Through such an animation exchange of both nations, not only Korean animation secures the diversity of exchange but also insignificant cultural exchange after formal establishment of diplomatic relations in 1990, will be revitalized and international firm relationship of both nations will be established. Therefore, as an activation plan or cultural exchange of Korea and the Czech Republic, concrete plan like Stop Motion Animation Workshop is proposed.

The Cultural Heritage Administration has selected Seoul Fortress Wall as the representative heritage of Korea to be applied for being registered as UNESCO World Heritage and announced the plan to restore and organize it, which has increased the interest to the Seoul Fortress Wall, the Historical Site No. 10. The great work to make the heritage value of Walls, 4 Big Gates and 4 Small Gates composing the Seoul Fortress wall with the length of 18.627 km to be recognized worldwide has limits if it is focused only on the physical restoration. It is because the Seoul Fortress Wall represents the long historical and cultural value as the space of life which connects closely the capital city and its vicinity. We need the plan to discover and utilize historical and cultural contents of Seoul Fortress Wall and its vicinity. Especially, Gwangheemun, which is one of the four Small Gates of Seoul Fortress Wall, is a precious cultural heritage which represents the transition of fortification technology of Chosun period as the space representing ordinary people. However, now Gwangheemun and its vicinity does not stand out the charm because of passive accessibility, landscape falling behind and absence of program. This made the lack of domestic and overseas tourists and the convenient space and various contents. This reality is because the value of space has been considered simply as a cultural heritage without considering the traditional, historical and cultural specificity. Therefore, this study is aimed to find the meaning and value of Gwangheemun by discovering its own latent intangible cultural, historical and artistic resource, and to find the way to connect with Gwangheemun, the existing tangible traditional architectural space and the way of vitalizing Gwangheemun as a new space.

Along with changes in the industrial structure, revitalizing decrepit or abandoned industrial-age infrastructures are actively under way on a global scale. This study was motivated by an interest in investigating currently idle industrial infrastructures and revitalizing the abandoned passenger ferry terminal in Geoje's Jangseungpo and surrounding areas. The main aims of this study were to examine regional features for the purpose of establishing urban renewal plans and field opinions of the local residents on how to proceed with the restoration of the passenger ferry terminal. To this end, this paper looked into previous case studies of converting decrepit industrial infrastructures into new cultural venues, depending on each region's special circumstances. This paper's findings are as follows: First, as a result of this investigation, the author found that in all cases in Korea and elsewhere revitalization focused on creating modern cultural spaces appropriate for the region while retaining its traditional value. At the same time, they sought sustainable cultural and economic revival. Second, as a result of the investigation on Geoje City's local characteristics, the author found that the surrounding areas' commercial districts were depressed after the terminal's closure. At the time of the investigation, the city government was trying to reopen the terminal as a major port offering multiple international ferry destinations while attracting tourists. Third, as a result of the surveys on the local residents, it was found that more than half of the residents were in agreement with the city government's plan to reopen the terminal and expressed their wishes that they want the terminal to have other uses such as cultural venues. Based on these research results, the author makes proposals, including expanding the passenger ferry terminal and offering cultural spaces within and near the terminal, based on the local residents' opinions and in reflection of local circumstances.

After 1970-80's rapid economic and urban development, nowadays the old downtown suffers from the deterioration of physical environment, outflow of its function and cavitation of population. And this phenomenon makes urban regeneration as a new paradigm in urban development. This is the case of Myeongdong area (Jungang-dong, Monsung-dong), old downtown of Cheonan around rail station, in the same way. City government has tried many regeneration/ redevelopment projects on this area but all failed due to lack of feasibility. This study intends to suggest new viable strategic regeneration scheme of this area through research and analysis of TOD development, existing condition and problems. As a result, the area needs to be considered as a node that links bus terminal complex and central market place with walkable street. For regeneration of this area, a strategic development scheme of this area is suggested deploying private capital invested rail station, underground shopping mall, transfer center, culture complex and nature park with Myeongdong street mall.

우리 전통술산업의 육성은 원료농산물의 소비증대와 수입주류의 대체, 전통문화의 복원 등 다양한 의미를 가지고 있다. 즉 쌀과 잡곡, 과일, 약초 등 우리 농산물로 빛은 민속주의 재현을 통해 개방여파로 인해 남아도는 우리 농산물의 소비증대와 국민들의 건강 증진, 전통문화의 계승발전에도 기여할 수 있기 때문에 산업적 활성화의 필요성이 크다. 특히 술은 지역축제나 관광, 예술 등과 결합한 고부가가치 문화상품이 될 수 있는 만큼 그린투어리즘(green tourism)이나 농촌문화관광을 풍요롭게 하는 중요한 컨텐츠가 될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 우리술산업의 활성화를 위한 정책과제로는 다음을 제시할 수 있다. (1) 우리술의 맛과 향, 숙취제거 등 품질을 개선하되 특히, 젊은층과 서민들의 기호에 맞으면서도 건강기능성을 가미한 다양한 제품의 개발과 포장 및 디자인의 개선이 필요하며 이를 위해 전문연구기관을 설립하거나 한국식품개발연구원을 통한 연구개 발과 교육 훈련이 선행되어야 한다. (2) 우리술의 품질관리와 차별적 유통을 위한 브랜드화가 필요한데 이는 지방자치단체와 관련업체에서 지역에서 생산되는 술에 대해 원료나 제조방법, 생산지역 등 품질기준과 표기방법을 제도화하고, 이를 소비자들에게 알리는 방법을 강구해야 한다 (3) 시음회나 품평회, 우리술페스티벌 등 다양한 이벤트행사를 통해 우리술에 대한 부정적 이미지를 개선하고 소비를 촉진하기 위해서는 적극적인 홍보와 판매촉진이 필요하다. (4) 우리 전통술의 품질향상과 가격인하를 위해 시설현대화와 기술개발, 포장 및 디자인개선, 원료구입, 홍보 및 판매촉진 등에 소요되는 자금을 지원하고 주세 차등화 등 조세감면과 경영컨설팅 등의 지원이 필요하다. (5) 현재 국회에 계류 중인 [전통술산업육성 및 지원법(안)]를 통과시켜 제도를 정비하고, 여러 부처에 흩어져 방치되고 있는 농민주 및 민속주 관련 행정체계를 정비해야 한다.

This study aims to provide methods and policy implications for vitalizing the regional regeneration of local small cities through utilizing idle spaces, with Hongcheon-gun as a case. Hongcheon-gun has been changed into cultural and art space since it was selected as the venue of Gangwon Triennales, and it is an example region that vitalized local areas by utilizing idle spaces on the basis of its placeness and characteristics. For the effective future utilization of idle spaces and regional regeneration, however, first, the survey of local resources is required for the systematic management and utilization of idle spaces. Second, foundations for the management and operation of idle spaces should be constructed. Third, methods for utilization should be sought in consideration of the characteristics of idle spaces and local conditions. Fourth, connected projects should be vitalized in consideration of possibilities for the regeneration and utilization of idle spaces.
