Jeju National Cemetery

The Jeju National Cemetery was planned as a space for regeneration where the future of descendants begins by remembering the traces of martyrs and Korean War veterans. It was constructed as an eco-friendly national cemetery on Hallasan Mountain, a World Natural Heritage Site, to improve the perception of cemeteries, which are often considered unpleasant facilities. Jeju National Cemetery, which has the symbolic meaning as the first national cemetery in the Jeju area, is composed of nine cemeteries, including the existing Chunghon Cemetery on the 270,000 m2 site, and capable of burying 10,000 enshrined tombs and enshrined halls. It was developed as the 'original land preserving graveyard,' which is the first one of its kind in Korea, and careful attention was given to the preservation of the surrounding landscape. An open park for general visitors and residents was created in front of the site. In the center of the site, we remodeled the charnel houses, memorial halls, and the existing Hyeonchung Hall and arranged office spaces in connection with them, considering the space and traffic line for worshipers and visitors to the tombs. The park in the rear, planned as a reserved space to respond to future demand, is a space that captures distinct features of Jeju Island, showing a new type of national cemetery where remembrance and resting coexist.
