The Arumjigi Foundation is a non-profit organization established in November 2001, dedicated to creatively preserving and passing down Korea’s traditional culture. Its mission is to rediscover the identity of Korean culture and cultivate new cultural heritage for future generations. Through efforts to care for Korea’s traditional cultural heritage and its surrounding environments, Arumjigi seeks to ensure that the values of tradition remain alive in modern life across clothing, food, and shelter. Arumjigi engages in a wide range of activities, such as maintaining the environments of Changdeokgung Palace and Jongmyo Shrine, beautifying the surroundings of old trees, designing signage for the Four Royal Palaces and Jongmyo Shrine, as well as for Haeinsa Temple, Hahoe Village, and Yangdong Village. It also hosts programs like the Arumjigi Academy, world heritage tours, special exhibitions, traditional music performances in hanok (traditional Korean houses), and research into traditional lifestyles. By operating hanok in Anguk-dong, Seoul, and Hamyang, Gyeongsangnam-do, Arumjigi enhances the value of hanok and explores innovative ways to utilize them. Moving forward, the foundation aims to explore the essence of Korean culture that connects the past, present, and future, setting exemplary cases for the modern inheritance of tradition.
