The Bangudae Petroglyphs in Ulsan, showcasing Korea's prehistoric culture, have been added to the UNESCO World Heritage list. The city aims to preserve and enhance tourism around this site, known for its repeated submersion due to nearby dam construction.
Efforts include installing flood gates to prevent submersion, creating historical trails, and establishing a world rock art center for research and education. Experts suggest leveraging digital content to further promote this ancient art globally as a new 'K-content'.
