[Online Guided Tour] Eng sub) Permanent Exhibition 3 Korean Life Passages

Korean Life Passages In the exhibition gallery titled Korean Life Passages, important life events from the Joseon Dynasty to the early 20th century (1392-1910) are displayed. According to the ideology of the Joseon Dynasty's, Confucianism, having a son was very important in order to continue the family lineage. During pregnancy, the family would ardently pray up until the child's birth for a son. After the child's 100th day and 1st birthday, the family would throw a celebration for hitting both respective milestones healthily. When males turned 20 years old, a coming-of-age ceremony (gwanrye) was held. Females also had a coming-of-age ceremony (gyerye), however, the ceremony was held at the age of fifteen. After having a coming-of-age ceremony, which symbolizes becoming an adult, the next step in life is marriage. Through marriage (honrye), a new family is formed. The males aspired to obtain a position within the government by passing a state exam, then would support their family, the females would manage the household. Funeral ceremonies (sangrye), members of the family would grieve by carrying out ancestral rites for the deceased. Through this, deceased ancestors are treated as a minor deity, with the family wishing for prosperity and harmony. Due to changes in ideology, modern day child birth has become important regardless of gender. While the coming-of-age ceremony is reduced and the wedding ceremony relatively became simpler than before, the basic structure and meaning of those ceremonies have not changed. The concept of family has been diversified, with males and females no longer sticking to their traditional roles. Though funerals and rituals have changed with the times, the core methodology of honoring their deceased ancestors and wishing for harmony has remained. #national#folk#museum#korea#nfmk#exhibition#korean#life#online#tour
