  abstract = {This study discusses the need to preserve and protect the value of material culture related to the rural lives of the villagers of the Wanju area in the south-eastern part of Korea. It starts with the following questions. Does the museum and cultural property protection policy in Korea actually protect cultural resources? What about the marginalised cultures of rural villages and their material culture? Will they all disappear? And because these cultural resources are relatively modern, are we neglecting their safeguarding because they are not old enough? In this article, I examine the current status and characteristics of material culture that have been found through studies of residents living in the rural villages of the Wanju area, and consider how they acquire value as heritage. In particular, I seek to find a connection between tangible and intangible cultural heritage through links between various cultural resources. Fieldwork and interviews with the villagers enable them to uncover the history of villages and their residents, and to curate their own experiences and settings, an important way to facilitate an integrated approach to identifying material culture in rural areas and rescuing these undervalued cultural resources.},
