Korea Heritage Service
The Korea Heritage Service (국가유산청) is South Korea's government agency for preserving, managing, and promoting national heritage across cultural, natural, and intangible categories. The agency has expanded beyond conservation-only policy toward public-facing programs that make heritage easier to experience in daily life, online, and through tourism events. That strategy was visible in the 2026 K-Royal Culture Festival merchandise push, where it worked with Kream to package Gyeongbokgung iconography like a modern collectible instead of a static souvenir.
