Cultural property, belongs to humanity, is an invaluable cultural heritage which should be preserved as close to original as possible and passed down to the generations. Preservation and transmission of cultural property are extremely important because it is impossible to restore to its original condition once it is damaged. Especially, as to intangible cultural property, extreme care should be taken to preservation of the original form because it is handed down only through oral tradition or recording without tangible objects. Although it is important to preserve cultural property itself for this purpose, the recording which can pass down its history to the generations such as production process and repair record for proper preservation of the original form and management, that is to say, to preserve related general recording from production to management of cultural property is basically required.
According to the change of the times, recording media has changed. In step with these changes, the Cultural Heritage Administration of Korea and the local government have been promoting the recording project of important intangible cultural property. This aims to create and manage related database by digitalizing for proper preservation of the original form in accordance with the characteristics of intangible cultural property which is invisible. Based on the product of this project and research report, it is considered what the problems are in the projects which have been conducted so far and whether the management of the related records produced in the process is being done properly. On problems taken from this, this study aims to suggest an improvement and right direction to go from the perspective of records management and archival studies.
