This research examines the adoption of Western modernism in Korean modern architecture in the early 20th century, which was a period of conflict not only between tradition and modernity, but also between the East and West. The overall research explores a representative and pioneering Korean modern architect, Dong-jin Park (1899-1981), who actively practiced his design during the Japanese colonial period. In particular, this research scrutinizes Dong-jin Park′s recognition of Western modernism through his publications, for example, in magazines and newspapers, which described his recognition of Western architecture. Through the representative architect′s ideas and writings, this research seeks to identify the characteristics and origins of Korean modern architecture.
