KOREAN ART ALIVE | Historical Mapping of Korea

Описание: Maps are more than tools. They're stories. This film explores Korea’s rich cartographic tradition, where maps conveyed worldview, identity, and beauty. From the 15th-century Gangnido to Jeong Seon’s painted landscapes, Korean maps merged art, politics, and spirituality, revealing how geography shaped not only travel but the very soul of a nation.
