Korea's Rolling stock workshop were established with the introduction of a railway, and became the center of industrial construction in the modern age of Korea. There still exist a lot of Rolling stock workshop buildings in the Youngsan Rolling stock workshop, the representative case of Korean Rolling stock workshop, and especially the study aims to look into modern architectural properties centered on those well-preserved buildings. Korea's Rolling stock workshop were built considering the proper conditions of location such as the neighboring districts from the port to transport vehicles and materials, the place where railroad lines are centralized, the short returning distance of railroad cars for entry and departure, and had the facility layout according to the order of a working process of vehicles, and the unique structure and the section facade shape with proper functions and sizes according to each purpose. In particular, they actively adopted steel-frame structure and reinforced concrete structure, and came to have the initial characteristics of Korea's modern industrial building which is called the structural transition. Therefore, this study aims to highlight the importance of Rolling stock workshop including the Youngsan Rolling stock workshop as industrial architecture heritage in the modern age of Korea.

부산은 18세기말 서양에게 처음으로 알려졌다. 이후 19세기말 조선이 강화도 조약을 시작으로 국제 열강들에게 개항되었을 때에도 중요한 국제적인 개항장이었다. 국제 선박들의 왕래가 늘면서 부산항의 항만시설과 등대의 중요성이 부각되었다. 등대의 설치와 관리는 부산 해관원들이 담당하였다. 개항기 해관의 작업들은 봉건사회에서 근대국가로 변천하는 조선의 역사적 기원이 된다. 이처럼 소중한 역사임에도 불구하고 개항기 해관문서들이 상당부분 소실되어 정확한 역사를 알 수가 없었다. 그러나 조선의 내부문서와 외교문서 그리고 국내외 언론들에 의해 작성된 기록들을 비교 검토함으로써 객관적인 사실관계를 정립할 수 있을 것이다. 이러한 맥락에서 본 연구는 최근 출간된 자료들과 수집된 고지도들을 바탕으로 조선말 개항기 부산항에 설치된 근대식 등대를 확인하는 것을 우선적인 목적으로 한다. 이를 통하여 대한민국 근대사의 올바른 정립에 객관적 자료를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.

근대 사회로 진입을 시도하면서 서양의 근대 문물이 국내로 쏟아져 들어오게 되었다. 그 중 전등은 고종의 필요에 의해 빠르게 도입되면서 서울의 경관을 근대적으로 이행시켰다. 전등으로 인한 야간경관은 도시의 시공간적 변화를 모두 지니는 경관으로 근대도시를 이해하는 데 중요하다. 이 연구는 서울 최초의 근대적 야간경관의 형성 과정을 추적하고자 했다. 한국에서 전등이 가장 먼저 설치된 곳은 1887년 경복궁의 건청궁이었다. 하지만 고종이라는 특정 인물을 위해 만들어졌다는 점에서 일면 중세적인 성격을 지닌 경관이라 할 수 있다. 궁궐에서만 사용되었던 전등이 민간인에게까지 전파된 데에는 전차 부설이 중요한 역할을 한다. 당시 사람들에게 전차는 부국강병의 지표이자 개화된 사회의 상징이었다. 전차의 이용객이 늘어나게 되면서 운행시간은 22시까지 연장되었다. 이때 전차의 야간운행은 1900년 종로 보신각에 가로등을 설치하는 계기가 된다. 종로 가로등은 민간이 볼 수 는 최초의 근대적 야간경관이다. 종로 야간경관은 일반 백성들이 쉽게 볼 수 있었으며 당시 백성의 상권을 위하여 조성되었다는 점에서 진정한 의미에서 최초의 근대적 야간경관이라 할 수 있다.

This study analyzes the sculptural art of SeokhaSichan(石霞施讚, 1893-1958), a significant figure in modern Korean Buddhist art, to re-examine his contributions and standing in the history of Korean Buddhist art. Sichan expanded the boundaries of modern Korean Buddhist art by developing a unique style based on the traditional sculptural techniques he learned from his mentor, Wanho Nakhyeon (玩虎洛現, 1869~1933). This study explores Sichan's artistic development, focusing on his artistic characteristics and sculptural evolution. Sichan's early works are characterized by small sculptures modeled after the main Buddha of Seokguram Grotto and heavily influenced by his mentor, WanhoNakhyeon. In his later works, notable features include a sense of massive volume, larger scale, upright postures, integration of the Buddha statue with its pedestal, and decorative treatment of drapery. These changes are interpreted as Sichan's response to social changes and his reflection of inner contemplation and artistic exploration in his works. This study reveals the influences of Wanho Nakhyeon, collaborations with Toewon Woneil(退雲圓日, 1877~1939), interactions with patron Kim Jiseonghwa(金至誠華), and master-disciple relationship with successor Geumchun Seongpil(金春性必) through literature review and newly discovered works by Sichan. His works and his artistic evolution are pivotal milestones in the history of modern Korean Buddhist sculpture, demonstrating a unique integration of traditional and modern aesthetics. This study provides valuable insights into how Sichan's artistic legacy was inherited and developed by subsequent generations and offers crucial materials for the study of modern Korean Buddhist sculpture history.

Most who have heard of Sang-Seol Lee know him for his contribution to the Korean independence movement nearly a hundred years ago. This paper, however, will discuss Lee's other great contribution to his country; that of being "The father of modern mathematical education in Korea". Lee passed the rigorous government officer examination with the highest honor and became a teacher for the royal prince. Later he became the president of Sunkyunkwan, a national institute of higher learning since 1398, and eventually a well-known university bearing the same name. Lee was also a highly regarded Confucian scholar and well versed in foreign languages. He wanted Korea to become a modern country and felt that the areas of science and engineering were studies that needed improving in order to achieve modernization. While researching Western textbooks on the subjects he realized that Western mathematics would be especially important for Korea. With that, it became his mission to integrate Western mathematics into the Korean educational system. This paper will explain the importance of Sang-Seol Lee's contributions to mathematic education in Korea and how it helped Korea become the modern nation it is today.

Modernism is understood as a process of differentiation. Postmodernism or postmodernity, by contrast, involves de-differentiation. Recently, most museums have many social function, a central defining feature is its 'inscapes', or the spaces, architecture, material objects, texts, and meanings of exhibitions. Aims of this paper is to examine the processes and characteristics of differentiation and de-differentiation of the korean museums in historical development. The processes of differentiation and de-differentiation of the korean museums are divided into three phases: a establish stage of modem museum(l945$\sim$1974), a establish stage of postmodern museum(1975$\sim$1989), a diffusion stage of postmodern museum(1990$\sim$2003).

Recently with the research function, "XML Digital collection of Sijo Texts in the Period of Modern Enlightenment" DB data is being provided through the Korean Research Memory (http://www.krm.or.kr) and the foundation for the constructing the contents of Sijo Texts in the Period of Modern Enlightenment has been laid. In this paper, by reviewing the characteristics and problems of Digital collection of Sijo Texts in the Period of Modern Enlightenment and searching for the improvement, I tried to find a way to make it into the content. This database has the primary meaning in the integrating and glancing at the vast amounts of Sijo in the Period of Modern Enlightenment to reaching 12,500 pieces. In addition, it is the first Sijo data base which is provide the variety of search features according to literature, name of poet, title of work, original text, per period, and etc. However, this database has the limits to verifying the overall aspects of the Sijo in the Period of Modern Enlightenment. The title and original text, which is written in the archaic word or Chinese character, could not be searched, because the standard type text of modern language is not formatted. And also the works and the individual Sijo works released after 1945 were missing in the database. It is inconvenient to extract the datum according to the poet, because poets are marked in the various ways such as one's real name, nom de plume and etc. To solve this kind of problems and improve the utilization of the database, I proposed the providing the standard type text of modern language, giving the index terms about content, providing the information on the work format and etc. Furthermore, if the Sijo database in the Period of Modern Enlightenment which is prepared the character of the Sijo Culture Information System could be built, it could be connected with the academic, educational contents. For the specific plan, I suggested as follow, - learning support materials for the Modern history and the national territory recognition on the Modern Age - source materials for studying indigenous animals and plants characters creating the commercial characters - applicability as the Sijo learning tool such as Sijo Game.
