This paper aims to analyze the process of the evolution of Gumi electronics industrial cluster and to understand the role of governments for local industrial dynamics. Gumi was a typical satellite platform type new industrial district up to mid-1990s. At that time, Gumi industrial park was the agglomeration of branch plants headquartered in Capital Region with weak local linkages. During the last two decades, however, Gumi has evolved to an electronics industrial cluster with considerable local interfirm linkages and innovation activities of SMEs. Recognizing government industrial policies is critical in understanding the process of the evolution of Gumi electronics cluster. At the early stage, the state was the developer and locator of business activities within the confines of the Gumi industrial park. In recent years, central government's innovative cluster policy contributed to strengthening networks among firms, universities, and research centers to form local innovation networks as well as networks between large branch plants and SMEs. Gumi city and Gyungsangbuk-do promoted innovative activities of SMEs through the supports of cooperative networks between universities and SMEs. The increasing roles of SMEs and local governments in addition to the large branch plants and the central government have become the basis of the evolution of industrial cluster in Gumi.

2년 전인 지난 2012년 9월 27일 경북 구미4공단에 소재한 휴브글로벌에서 불화수소가 누출되는 사고가 발생했다. 이 사고로 근로자 5명이 사망하고 23명이 부상을 당했다. 사고 후 불화수소가 공기를 통해 대량 퍼지면서 인근 지역도 막대한 피해를 입었다. 사고는 안전관리측면에서 많은 허점을 드러냈다. 사업장은 물론 관할 소방서, 구미시 모두에서 화학사고에 대한 대응 매뉴얼과 협조체계가 제대로 구축되지 않아 피해의 확산을 막지 못했다. 너무나 허술한 화학사고 대응체계의 현실에 구미시민은 물론 전 국민이 분노했다. 이에 정부는 화학물질관리 및 사고대응 시스템 전면에 대한 대대적인 개선에 돌입했다. 그리고 그 결과물이 지난해 12월 초 모습을 드러냈다. 관계부처, 지자체, 소방당국, 안전보건공단까지 한데 모여 효과적인 화학사고 예방과 대응을 전담하는 화학재난 합동방재센터가 전국에서 처음으로 구미에 문을 연 것이다. 그로부터 반년이 흐른 지금 구미에는 어떤 변화가 생겼을까. 달라진 화학재난 안전관리체계를 확인해보고자 구미119화학구조센터를 찾아가봤다.

This paper aims to understand the changing characteristics of the Kumi region as a locality in Korea through the regional geography of the world-system approach. To illustrate the changing regional characteristics, we analyzed the economic characteristics or position of the Kumi region within the world-economy and its spatial structure with three divisions of Korean capitalist periods: the Japanese colonial period ($1910{\sim}1945$), the social chaos period ($1945{\sim}1960$), and the economic development period ($1960{\sim}$present). In the Japanese colonial and social chaos periods, as Korean society was incorporated into the peripheral zone within the world-System (world-economy), Kumi also was made into a peripheral agricultural area. As a result, the Kumi region shaped the rural spatial structure without an urban center or regional dominant center. In the development period, influenced by the manufacturing-centered economic policy which boosted Korea as a semi-periphery within world-economy, Kumi also was developed into an industrial region(or semi-periphery) with the establishment of the Kumi electronic and textile industrial complex. This industrialization transformed the rural spatial structure of Kumi into a core (urban center)-periphery (rural area) structure. As we identified above, the regional geography of the world-system approach turned out to be a useful methodology to study a locality or internal region. Therefore we should make efforts to study such regions through the regional geography of the world-system approach.

구미시 산단지역은 반도체, LCD, 브라운관, 정보통신기기 등 첨단전자 정보통신산업을 위주로 형성되어 있으며, 섬유와 기타 합성수지 산업도 위치하고 있다. 이러한 산업 구조로 인해 전자산업에서는 세척제로 Trichloroethylene과 Dichloromethane등이 사용되며, 섬유와 합성수지 산업에서는 Toluene과 같은 유기용제가 많이 사용되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 전자산업을 위주로 형성된 구미 산단지역의 대기중 휘발성유기화합물(이하 VOCs)의 농도를 여름과 겨울철로 나누어 측정ㆍ평가하여, 구미지역 유해오염도 개선을 위한 기초자료를 제시함을 목적으로 하였다.

In this study CALPUFF modeling was performed to establish a correlation between regions of frequent civil odor complaints near Gumi national industrial complex and odor-emission facilities of synthetic fiber manufacturers in the same area as main acetaldehyde-emission point sources. As a result of the CALPUFF modeling, the maximum concentration of acetaldehyde in Gumi national industrial complex was reduced from O ($10^{-5}g/m^3$) to O ($10^{-6}g/m^3$) upon improving emission facilities of T company so that the maximum concentrations of acetaldehyde frequently appeared in complex 3. In addition, the predicted range of the maximum acetaldehyde concentration in Gumi national industrial complex was also improved in comparison with that prior to improving emission facilities of T company. These maximum concentrations of acetaldehyde obtained to estimate the expected contribution of total acetaldehyde point source by CALPUFF modeling showed the similar values to those measured in 'HAPs investigation in the region of Gumi-Daegu' and were consistent to the trend of civil odor complaints. Therefore, the expected contribution of total acetaldehyde point source was validated. The relative contribution of T company upon improving its emission facilities was predicted to be lowered by more than factor of two, compared to that prior to improving its emission facilities. To the contrary, the relative contribution of W company upon improving emission facilities of T company was predicted to be increased by more than factor of two, compared to that prior to improving emission facilities of T company. This indicates that the contribution of aldehyde point sources of W company was relatively increased upon improving emission facilities of T company.

The purpose of this study is to expand a prospect of a few-remaining Byeolseo scenic sites of Gangwon-do(Province) through determining placeness formation, prospect characteristics, and landscape meanings of Gumi(Nine beauties) and Sipalgyung(18 scenic views) in Gumijeongsa. Gumijeongsa, which is located in a riverside of the Goljicheon(stream), a part of upstream of Namhangang, is the oldest existing Nujung architecture in the Jeongseon area. This study tried to unearth the Gumijonegsa's locational and formational characteristics through literature review and a field survey. Especially, through the field survey, this study tried to figure out the landscape meanings and contents of Gumi and Sipalgyung by Gumijeongsa's position and its prospect compositions. As a result of this study, Gumi and Sipalgyung of Gumijeongsa are variations of typical traditional culture of Gugok(Nine river bends) and Palgyung(Eight scenic views). Ja Lee, the founder, administrated Gumijeongsa as a core residence of Gugok culture. He established beautiful nine viewpoints from the building, named Gumi, and added 18 detailed landscapes(two landscapes for one beauties), instead of establishing nine river bends of the stream. The Gumi and Sipalgyung are formed by reflection of beautiful locational characteristics from the views in Gumijeongsa, thus the Gumi is the concept which is a unique variation of Gugok and Palgyung culture.

This study analyzed the changes in the industrial environment surrounding the Gumi region and the status of the industrial crisis in the Gumi area amid such changes. The Gumi region is experiencing a more turbulent period than ever in the environment changes at the international, national and local levels, such as the transition to the Fourth Industrial Revolution, the weakening of the competitiveness of key industries including mobile devices and displays, and the moving-out of core companies such as Samsung and LG Group. Accordingly, efforts have been made to diversify the industrial structure by fostering industry of automobile parts, high-tech medical devices and carbon materials to cope with and adapt to environmental changes at the regional level. However, the Gumi region is still locked in to the mono-cultural, large enterprise-dependent industrial structure centering on the mobile and display sectors, failing to overcome the regional industrial crisis and stagnating the overall local economy. The relocation of large companies began to increase in the 2010s, reducing the protection of large corporations against environmental changes at the corporate level. As a result, the crisis factors of small and mediumsized enterprises are gradually expanding to the national and international scale and working more complexly, which is beyond the level they can afford. So it is highly likely that the current industrial crisis will deepen. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the resilience to adapt to changes in the environment when it comes to overcoming the industrial crisis in Gumi region. To this end, it is necessary to improve innovation capabilities and diversify businesses based on convergence and complex technologies at the enterprise level, and to be selected as a special crisis response area aimed at creating an innovative ecosystem through autonomous resonance of companies and industries at the local level.
