The Potential of K-Heritage Spaces in Andong -Case Studies of Hahoe Village and Byeongsan Seowon-

Hahoe Village and Byeongsan Seowon, two UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Andong, Korea, are dynamic cultural landscapes that offer significant educational potential. Hahoe Village, with its organically evolved structure, preserves ecological authenticity and resilience, serving as a powerful asset for heritage education. Meanwhile, Byeongsan Seowon's intentionally designed landscape, inspired by Chagyeong aesthetics, provides visual rest and fosters humanistic reflection, resonating with modern minimalism. This study reveals that these sites are not static relics but ongoing cultural ecosystems that continuously adapt to contemporary lifestyles, offering a framework for transforming classical narratives into globally competitive 'K-Spaces'. The research employed qualitative landscape analysis based on field observations in 2018 and 2024, grounded in theories by Carl O. Sauer, Yi-Fu Tuan, and Edward Relph.
