`In Sa Dong` series
Choi, Bom Lim

 

Yoon Jeong Mee`s `In Sa Dong` series shows a marketplace where traditional Korean items are easily purchased and consumed by the public. The marketplace also educates the public about the term `Korean` and allows them to experience those Korean artifacts hans-on. Stores that sell traditional artifacts and traditional Korean restaurants commemorate old korean culture. They also disseminate traditional artifacts and culture for profit. The public has a fantasy of being connected to tradition as they consume traditional things. They console themselves with the false belief that they are getting back lost history.
