The event will begin with a walk alongside those who have protected historical records. Depositors, local residents, and young people will walk about 1.5 kilometers along Seonseong Sangsang-gil, starting at Jangpangak, where Confucian woodblocks are kept. This will be followed by a keynote lecture by Professor Mark Peterson and an expert roundtable discussion on Korean cultural data in the age of artificial intelligence (AI) and the role of institutions dedicated to Korean studies.
The main ceremony commemorating the center’s 30th anniversary will take place in the afternoon. Cultural performances, awards, and a tribute to depositors will look back on the center’s achievements over the past 30 years, and the “KSI Future Vision 2040,” outlining its direction for the future, will be announced.
