-> Firstly, we apologize for causing you inconvenience about the heritage data. According to the department in charge, this website is going to be renewed around March next year. Also, the official translation of state-designated properties is in preparation and will be applied to the updated database. We will try to provide you with more accurate information. Thank you,


Dear Webmaster! The heritage search database on the English version is outdated compared to the Korean version. For example it still lists 'Historic and Scenic Sites' as active, whereas they were recategorized in 2009 according to the Korean version. I am currently working on Wikipedia articles of Korean heritage and this hinders my work very much, as I can read hangul but I need dictionaries to be able to decipher information on the Korean website, to translate heritage site names, for example in this article http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/D%C3%A9l-Korea_fest%C5%91i_helyei

Is there a plan to update the database in English in the near future to match the Korean database?

Thank you in advance
Kind regards
