Song Chan-seop et al.: Korea in Modern and Contemporary Times (26-1 Semester, Workbook Included)

Modernity is not merely a process but a period that persists to this day. ‘Modernity’ and ‘modernity’ are not theories or abstract concepts, but concrete historical experiences awaiting discovery and interpretation. Therefore, rather than defining modernity as a grand structure or system, a perspective is needed that views it as a form of life experienced in daily life. To understand the process by which today’s daily life was formed, one must trace back to the past to grasp the historicity of everyday life. This is why the study of the history of daily life has begun to emerge as an important academic field. The increasing research trend of understanding modernity through the lens of the history of everyday life is also due to the fact that the facets of modernity are best revealed in the world of daily life. By comprehensively examining the social changes within the process of modernization, this will serve as a guide to understanding our current society.
