Maritime Hall - Tilling the Seabed (MMK)

Traditional fishing and aquaculture in Korea have a long history as a means for people to secure a stable supply of food. Among these ways, traditional aquaculture involves confining specific organisms within a designated area to prevent escape and fostering their growth to harvest the resources they provide. Such traditional methods of conforming our needs to the natural order without causing any harm have been recognized for their value and are managed as a National Important Fishery Heritage in various regions.

"Seaweed Farming" is a method where poles with nets attached for seaweed to cling to are erected on a mudflat bed when the tide is out, allowing the seaweed to be harvested. The tools required for seaweed farming can be divided into two main categories, exhibit #2 "Tools for Laver Cleaning" and exhibit #3 "Tools for Making Laver." First, the harvested seaweed is cleaned thoroughly using a basket and a wooden rod with a circular plate. Then, the cleaned seaweed is scooped onto a square "Seaweed Frame" to shape it and dried on a "Drying Rack." The "Seaweed Cutter" is a tool for cutting dried seaweed into square shapes. Next, the "Hook Used to Collect Seaweed" is displayed on the wall, labeled as #1, which was used for harvesting seaweed in the sea. This tool features a long pole with various types of hooks at the end.
