Jeong Gyeong-yeon et al.: History of Korean Cities

Historically, cities are the birthplace of human civilization. Where cities were formed, where civilizations were developed and civilizations were built, where cities developed. The city is a place where people's activities have been on the move for a long time, and humanity's wisdom has gathered. He would have chosen a peaceful state of dignity to create villages and go out and build cities. It's made the intelligence of humanity blossom with a brilliant urban culture. As a city planner, I think we need to understand how our cities have developed. It takes understanding of the city of the past to understand what it is. Because cities of the past are connected to cities of today. Explore of urban history is also the process of finding the roots of cities. We're trying to figure out the source of the city's origin. And before that, there will be traces of our ancestors' lives and dignity. Most of the topics that were taught and discussed in college were probably Western urban planning systems and urban forms. A straight line of efficient traffic, a functional land-use system that respects each function and divides the area into the use area, and so on, was the subject of urban planning based on Western theories. As I learned from the great work of Western cities, I wondered what our city would look like. How does a city we have built differ from a city in the West? It would be meaningful to look for the origins of our nation's cities. I wanted to look back at the history of our own city, and I thought, since the time of the merchant. Consider the post-war era, which has been going on since the International Post-Federal Age, through the High-East, Third-Explosive and Intense Age.
