Let's get awared about Ojukheon in Gangneun,(Korea)
Ojukcheon in early kingdom of joseon period.Ojukheon is well preserved in its original form and one of the most representativebuildings of the period.The building is an important construction history material that shows the transition from Jusimpo(column brackets) style to iikgong (double wing-bracket) style.
In 1963,Ojukheon was designated as Treasure Number 165. Yulgok Yi Yi was born in Mongnyongsil.
In 1963,Ojukheon was designated as Treasure Number 165. Yulgok Yi Yi was born in Mongnyongsil.
It was here where Sinsaimdang (1504~1551) lived and where his son Yulgok (scholar and politician of the Joseon Period) was born. It was built during the time of the 11th King of Joseon, King Jungjong (1506~1544), and remains one of the oldest wooden residential buildings in Korea. Remembering Yulgok. Current 5,000won bill that includes Yulgok's portrait with Ojukheon's Mongnyonsil with black bamboos depicted on the bill. An Easy guide map for exploring Ojukheon A description about Ojukheon in a Nutshell Sharing views with High school students paying visit to Ojukheon , very much enthusiastic in knowing about Yulgok and Ojukheon. Standing Buddha statue in Gangneung. Reminding me the relics of Buddha.Informative to know such information being an Indian. This is standing stone buddha from the Goryeo dynasty. It is 1.8 metres high, the body and the pedestral are made of different stones. Sitting statue also from Goryeo dynasty. Taegeuk symbol refers to the ultimate reality from which all things and values originate according to oriental philosophy. It is also the symbol that makes up the center of the Flag. The annex. Mainly men of Yulgok's family stayed in the annex:Yi Sa-son, The Maternal grandfather of Shin Saimdang;Shin Myeong-Hwa,The maternal grandfather of Yulgok;Yi Won-su,Yulgok's father;and Gwon Che-gyeon,a cousin of Yulgok. This Monument is designated as Treasure No. 165 in 1963 and has been maintained by the descendants throughout the generations.If you enter inside Ojukheon there's a Yulgok Memorial Hall, Mongryongsil, where Yulgok was born, the household shrine called Munseongsa, and the entrances called Jagyeongmun, Sajumun etc. Some unforgettable memories associated in the form of Pictures which would be remembered forever. Visit to Ojukheon was a a great expedition to know the Historic Beauty of Korea still alive in the air of Gangneung. Wish to have one another informative expedition in near future. |

A Five-Day Market in Jeju
We can figure out culture and customs in traditional markets. I’d like to introduce you a five-day market in Jeju island which presents its own culture and customs.
A five-day market opens five days in a row per month, however, just 40 and 50 years ago, it was nothing but a normal market crowded with people. As time goes by, the market has modernized, but unfortunately nine markets remained so far.
A Five-Day Market in Jeju, History and Tradition

It is not clear from when the five-day market started in Jeju. Academic circles estimate the market started at front yard of Gwandeokjeon in 1910. According to the record, it opened every second and seventh day in lunar calendar. Many items such as crops, clothes and daily necessity were sold or bartered for.
Jeju five-day market has been a driving force to Jeju people and contributed to regional economic growth. The natives say that the biggest markets were the ones that opened near Tapdong and Yongdam. Also, it is said that many people were competitive to get a nice place to sell their items.
The market is not only for selling and buying products but for communicating with people in town. Every market has its own characteristics. For example, some deal with seafood, others deal with farm products. Currently, it has been modernized and improved for consumers, and delivery and customer call service became common as well. It also has a quality guarantee service. They even provide the arcade for children, stroller, and cart to young mothers to make them feel comfortable while shopping.
Transformed into Cultural Tourism Market

Now, the five-day market became very popular with other tourist attractions in Jeju, such as ‘Olleh’ roads. As an effort to boost the economy, Seogypo market changed its name into ‘Olleh’, after then, even people from other local markets visit there for benchmarking.
Actually, Seogypo market was in depression but the atmosphere has been revived since it connected the tour business with the sixth course of Olleh. Moreover, promotion effect has been doubled after the Small and Medium Business Administration and Market Promotion Center chose the market as one of the “50 traditional markets to go”.
According to Jeju government, the number of visitors per day increased 8,000 from 6,000. Daily sale went up to 80 million won, increasing by 20 million won. Jeju seller association has already registered Maeil Olleh market as the trademark. With this effort, over 2,000 Olleh hikers visited to the market, which is twice as higher than that of last year.
More than 1,000 government officials and merchants have visited to benchmark Olleh market from all across the country. More Olleh hikers have come to Dongmun market as it became the 18th course of Olleh. Hanlim maeil market is connected to 14th course of Olleh, and Daejung five-day market is connected to 11th course of Olleh. Seogypo Maeil market is designated as the cultural tourism market of the year 2010 and 2011. Seomun market will soon plan to develop other Olleh courses.
Meanwhile, a person concerned to the market said that DID (Digital Information Display) will be installed in sixth course of Olleh in order to provide information of food, products, hot sale events in Jeju to all visitors. They expect many of them will come to markets as well.
So, if you want to feel 100% of the culture and custom of Jeju, this is the best season. Don’t forget to bring camera!

International Literacy Day held in India
September 8 is International Literacy Day. The day was proclaimed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) on November 17, 1965, and celebrated for the first time in 1966. International Literacy Day aims to highlight the importance of literacy to individuals, communities, and societies. For this year’s International Literacy Day, the focus was on the link between literacy and peace, and a ceremony took place in New Delhi, India.
![](https://lh3-testonly.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_vb1h6H6OYzUoyrmSEg9KNH4klVleMaD3rozWlm-ip994JY9FM-yIBNKMxXN9I0BBVOS_ZP0XWLLCOT7FcuZZ06NIrNlZSkpNG9cxa4jMnmFEIYFlruF7GIBXsaoQ0JyLEAdYIoy1A9JW0=s0-d)
During the ceremony in New Delhi, UNESCO gave out the UNESCO King Sejong Literacy Prize to projects in Burundi and Mexico. The Literacy Prize was created by the Korean government in 1989 to honor the outstanding contribution made to literacy by Sejong the Great (1397 - 1418/1450) who created Hangul, the Korean alphabet. This prize rewards the activities of governments, governmental agencies, and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that display merit and achieve particularly effective results in promoting literacy. In the past 20 years, a total of 38 UNESCO King Sejong Literacy Prizes have been awarded to countries such as India, China, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Nigeria.
One of the two recipients of the UNESCO King Sejong Literacy Prize this year is the National Literacy Service in Burundi, for its innovative approach in linking functional literacy to daily life issues and topics related to peace and tolerance, as well as for its overall impact. This service also provided educational opportunities such as how to work efficiently.
The second recipient of the UNESCO King Sejong Literacy Prize is the National Institute for the Education of Adults of Mexico, for its bilingual literacy program, Bilingual Literacy for Life. This program is recognized for its impact in reducing the rate of illiteracy among indigenous populations, especially among women, and also for improving the ability of indigenous people to exercise their rights. In 2007, a total of 944 people participated in this program, but since then the program has had more than 50,000 participants annually.
The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism plans to invite the UNESCO King Sejong Literacy Prize recipients to Korea to commemorate the 565th Hangul Proclamation Day. They will stay in Korea for five days and four nights and will attend the 565th Hangul Proclamation Day Festival, an international literacy conference, and various other programs to experience Korean traditional culture.
