This article examines how and why entrepreneurship differs by region concerning the history of Korea's entrepreneurial ecosystems (EEs). Through a qualitative analysis of 19 interviews, this article compares the history and components of Seoul National University and KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) EEs. First, these ecosystems emerged around 1996 and are currently experiencing the second startup boom, with various supporting organizations and actors involved. Second, these ecosystems revealed differences concerning material, social and cultural attributes. Third, differences in the networking of the two ecosystems are due to different regional cultures, which allow individuals to interpret entrepreneurial opportunities. In other words, the maintenance and development of EEs are cultural in essence and display regional variation.

The purpose of this study is to analyze key concepts of Entrepreneurial Ecosystems and to suggest implications for economic geographical studies. The definition and concept of entrepreneurship as well as changes of its research trends were examined. By combining entrepreneurship and geography, Entrepreneurial Ecosystems, which have recently emerged as important concepts and theories, were examined with the focus on the key concepts such as 'actors and factors', 'productive' and 'territory'. It is important that the individual, organizational and institutional components such as entrepreneurs, start-ups, existing companies, institutions and cultural elements are interconnected to build communities through 'entrepreneurial recycling'. Entrepreneurial Ecosystems support to create innovative high-growth start-ups based on entrepreneurial culture in the local region. Despite conceptual limitations, theoretical and empirical analyses should be conducted from economic geographical perspectives in order to reveal the geographical and spatial processes of productive entrepreneurship and to suggest policy implications for region-based start-up ecosystems.

Recently it is supposed to be a shift to regional geography. To understand the emergence of the new regional geography, It must be remarked that the progress of capitalist production and consumption change our conceptional apparatus such as representation of space. Region is one of the important mode of representations of space and time. In the Fordist capitalism of 20th century, development is regarded as diffusion of capitalist expansion of western worlds. State must support capitalist growth through regional policies which include constructing of infrastructure and regionalization of spatial division of labour. The regional development theories contributed as ideology and policy tools for state intervention. The region was simply one of the most logical classification tools of organizing geographical informations. In the theories of regional development, the concept of region was reduced to the formal unit of classification. As the transition from Fordism to flexible accumulation, the region is again acquiring its 'identity' and 'authenticity'. In this tendency of the revival of region, it is expected that good achievement could be made in the field of regional geography through relevant research methods. It is also believed one of the available means are historical approaches to the cultural and ecological regions. The historical approaches to cultural and ecological regions are not only correspondent with cultural development strategies of local governments, but also could convey regional identities through both narrativization of place and aestheticization of landscape.

도시에 관한 제문제를 연구하기 시작한 것은 그다지 오래되지 않다. 더우기 도시생태에 관한 연구는 더욱 그러하다. 이처럼 역사는 짧지만, 도시생태에 관한 연구는 장족의 발전을 이룩해 왔는데 그 원인은 컴퓨터의 개발이다. 컴퓨터는 과거 10년간 사회과학은 물론 자연과학분야에 까지 널리 활용되어 과학발전에 큰 공헌을 하고 있다. 특히 컴퓨터의 자료처리 능력은 우리의 상상을 초월한다. 예를 들면 도시지리에서는 컴퓨터가 자료분석 뿐만아니라, 나타난 결과를 지도화할 수 있는 능력도 가지고 있다. 본 몬문은 서울과 대구 - 대구의 경우 두 종류의 data를 썼다.- 지역을 컴퓨터에 의해서 생태요인을 분석하여 나타난 결과를 지도화한 것이다.

쾌적하고 능률적인 생태도시 건설을 계획할 때는 도시의 자연환경을 고려하여 공공시설의 입지선정을 신중히 해야한다. 도시계획과 운영이 합리적으로 이루어진다면 도시는 쾌적한 촌락환경과 크게 다르게 되지 않을 것이다. 그러므로 도시문제의 해결을 위해서는 도시를 구성하고 있는 요소와 관련된 모든 분야 즉, 도시계획, 토목공학, 생태학, 기후학, 지리학 등의 전문가들이 함께 문제를 검토하고 계획하는 학제간의 협력이 필요하다. 즉, 도시의 기온분호으 ㅣ패턴, 탁월풍과 도로망 및 구조물의 배열, 도시공원과 가로수의 적정 수종을 이해한다면 도시의 쾌적한 환경을 유지하기 위하여 비싼 대가를 치르지 않아도 될 것이다. 또한 도시의 행정책임자는 쾌적한 도시 환경을 보전하기 위하여 제도 및 업무수행에 유연하여야 할 것이다.

This paper aims to examine how and why the role of Seoul National University has evolved through the formation of Seoul National University's entrepreneurial ecosystems (SNUEEs). To identify this, we used secondary data on SNU entrepreneurship and did in-depth interviews with 17 student entrepreneurs and supportive actors in the ecosystems. First, the university-industry cooperation policy and the first start-up boom in the late 1990s gave rise to the first generation of SNUEEs. They entered the second generation with the second start-up boom in 2010. The third generation emerged through the government's start-up support policy and the venture investment market revitalization in 2017. Second, SNUEEs have experienced transformations of the university's role from an 'ivory tower' to a 'feeder of knowledge and labor' and have become a 'hub of knowledge networks.' Third, hub institutions and organizations were established and supported by government policies, and networks of SNUEEs have been embedded in these hub institutions and organizations. SNUEEs as a hub university are evolving through the formation of a voluntary entrepreneurial culture by student entrepreneurs, the supportive policy at the university level, and the establishment of linkages with the region where the university is located.

제주도의 기온온난화가 한라산 고산식물 분포에 미치는 영향에 대한 연구의 하나로 한라산 고산식물 8종의 수평 및 수직 분포역과 생육환경이 조사되었다. 그 결과 희귀하거나 멸종 위기 상태에 있는 고산식물들에 관한 생물지리학적 기초 자료와 정보가 축적되었다. 한라산 고산식물은 분포특성에 따라 8가지 유형으로 분류되며, 그 중 70퍼센트 정도가 한반도의 고산지나 일본열도의 것들과 공통적인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 이들은 빙하기 동안 동북아시아에서 한반도를 거쳐 제주도로 유입되었고, 일부는 일본열도에 전파된 것으로 생각된다. 현재 이들 고산식물은 열악한 기후, 척박한 토질과 지질 그리고 동결과 융해가 반복되는 주빙하성 환경에 적응하여 산정부 일대에 주로 분포한다. 본 연구는 한라산 고산식물의 분포와 과거 및 현재 환경과의 관계에 대한 기초 자료를 구축하여, 한반도의 자연환경 변천사를 파악하고, 기온온난화가 지속될 때 한라산 고산경관과 생태계가 당면할 문제를 파악하고 대안을 제시하는데 필요한 정보를 제공할 것으로 기대된다.

It can be suggested that social geography in the 2000s in Korea has achieved a considerable development, dealing with various theories and issues. This suggestion can be identified first of all with the publication of several texts of Social Geography in this period. For important theoretical discussions, the neoliberal glocalization process of capitalist economy has promoted geographical researches from the perspective of political economy, and the development of information and communication technology, increasing foreign immigrants, environmental problems such as the global warming, and social participation and empowerment of women in Korea have increased social geographical concerns with and theoretical discussions on informational society and city, multiculturalism and/or transnationalism, political ecology and environmental justice, and feminism. This paper provides a review on these major issues in recent theoretical discussions in social geography in Korea, and suggests a brief comment on its future development.
