In this exhibition, we will introduce the 1929 Joseon Expo, and the expo as viewed from the perspective of the Joseon people at the time. The expo was a glorification of the results of Japanese colonization, and many intellectuals have left behind several articles after perceiving this.
The Governor-General of Korea developed a "Gyeongseong Sightseeing" course for visitors for the successful opening of the expo.『Byeolgeongon』 also introduced its own "Gyeongseong Sightseeing" course in "Great Gyeongseong Special Edition". In this exhibition, we introduce pictures of the places that appeared in the sightseeing course and pictures of related relics and compared the two sightseeing courses.
