This study aims to examine how the Gyeongseong Hokuk Shrine established the natural environment in Yongsan during the Japanese colonial period, focusing on the relationship between Japan and Chosen Hokuk Shrines. In the colonies, the establishment of shrines strongly tended to symbolize Imperial Japan and visually represent its ruling logic. The Gyeongseong Hokuk Shrine holds historical significance as a place to commemorate soldiers who died for the Emperor and as a tool of colonial rule, but further discussion is needed on how it was organized within the Yongsan. This study focuses on Hokuk Shrine planning under which the Shrine Bureau of Home Ministry constructed similar shrines across Japan by the Ministry of Home Affairs Ordinance No. 12 of 1939. As a result, this study examines the environment and architectural styles of Hokuk Shrines through examples from Japan and uses this analysis to explore the characteristics of Gyeongseong Hokuk Shrine and its relationship with the Yongsan. The significance of this research lies in highlighting the historical urban significance of Yongsan during the modern period.

With the increase of visitors to rural tourism villages, the direct selling at sites is getting vitalized. Accordingly, their display stores is getting more important. Therefore, this study has selected 30 domestic rural tourism villages as study objects for the attitude survey of 200 farming suppliers and the site examination for the designs of those display stores in order to analyze their status and classify the types of necessity. Such operation status as sale item, sale method, method of supply and demand, major customer, sales scale, manager, opening hour, and operation cost were examined, to identity and for design factors the pattern, material quality and color were investigated. For the attitude of farming suppliers, the tactics of sales, the reason for being positive or negative, the functionality and the features of display stores were examined through brainstorming. IBM SPSS Statistics 20 Program was employed for Frequency, which indicated that village chiefs and store managers with the sales scale of 1 to 20 million won are dealing with female customers in their 40's and 50's and that those stores are open at the time of experience or year round without any operation expense. Permanent type and Fixed type were found to be the design factors of the display-case type with the material and the color of wood and orange respectively. The result of investigation analysis of farming suppliers' attitude showed the followings: the need of display stores is quite high, structure type and permanent type have high fitness and from the viewpoint of display-on-table type as a standard moving type was very convenient. The analysis of significant items at the characteristics of those display stores revealed that their locations, quality conservation, sanitation, users' convenience, designs and promotion are very important. The result of status analysis revealed that though there is a correlation among the types of display stores depending on the visiting season of tourists their installing is not desirable. Three types have been analyzed: Type 1 is a structure type only in the villages with continuous visitors, Type 2 a moving-table type only in the villages with temporary visitors and Type 3 is a fixed display-case type.
