"The book ""Culture-Led Urban Regeneration in South Korea"" has successfully captured scholastic insights into art and culture of South Korea concerning regeneration policy, a subject that is rare in the literature, especially in the non-European countries. This book explores the history of urban regeneration initiatives in South Korea while linking it to social regeneration issues such as deprivations, interventions, community development, adaptation and enhancement. It has also attempted to link the experience of South Korea with global views on the same subject. This book, which is comprehensively written in a simple language and interposed with annotated graphical illustrations, would serve readers of all age categories, planners, and researchers in the fields of History, Urban Studies, and the wider research community. The aims of the research captured as well as the theoretical development of a year-long culture of South Korea and event and culture-led urban regeneration has been captured in a manner that no study of this kind may have attempted. Overall, it is a great piece of work and constitutes an invaluable companion for every reader within diverse field of academic research.
