ABSTRACT

In this paper, I tried to navigate the cultural identities of Gangwon Area in Joseon dynasty and that searched for its current meaning. In Sillok(實錄), geography and anthologies, Kangwon area was negatively recognized: A solitary society isolated by mountain villages, an economically backward area, an area where Confucianism has not been established. On the other hand, Kangwon area was seen as an unsophisticated source space, and was noted as space of Unworldliness and Healing through traveling Scenic spot. Now we should refrain from blindly pursuing the center and that need to pay attention to the cultural values of the region. Modern people can repair the mind and body of the city through a travel to Gangwon area. Therefore, we should actively develop cultural elements of Gangwon area.
