To understand the governing institutions' arrangement in an old city of the late Joseon dynasty, it is necessary to compare and weigh the detailed old map with regional geographical records Eupji. In particular, the investigation of 'Closure Land Registration Map' is indispensable, which was made in the period of the Japanese occupation. This study aims to restore the urban land lots arrangement of Cheonan-Gun's old center part in the initial period of the Japanese occupation, using the oldest 'Closure Land Registration Map(1940)' of Cheonan-Gun. The results of this study will be helpful in understanding the governing institutions' arrangement of Cheonan-Gun in the late Joseon dynasty.

Suhwa Kim Hwan-gi established his own unique world of art based on Korean-style lyricism with his sophisticated and sublimated formative language as the first generation of Korean abstract artist. He made his name known not only in Korea but New York and Paris, the center of contemporary art. Presently, there is almost no material left for us to examine how Kim Hwan-gi's house looked in the first place. But there is a painting that chef Kim Am-gi possesses where we can find the image of painter Kim Hwan-gi's house drawn by recalling the memories at home in a far-off land. With that, we can see it should be the original looks of that house. To examine the original looks of Kim Hwan-gi's house when it was built, this author studied the closure land registration map. By analyzing 29 land registration maps around Eupdong-ri of Gijwa-myeon in Muan-gun of Jeollanam-do produced in 1917 which National Archives of Korea possesses, this researcher could figure out the status of land registration around Kim Hwan-gi's house with No. 15 and 22 drawing boards. According to the results of considering aerial photographs after the emancipation that National Geographic Information Institute possesses, this author has found that the arrangement of Kim Hwan-gi's house was changed from 1954 up to 2008. In 1954 aerophotos, we can see the main building and studio in Kim Hwan-gi's house and there was an additional structure between them. Kim Hwan-gi's house was built before 1925. The main building presently designated as a cultural asset and also the sarangchae arranged in the east and the studio, too, were built in the similar period.
