Through domestic and international academic approaches, it published a white paper systematically documenting the history and artistic value of cheolhwa buncheong ware, and through a cheolhwa buncheong ware collaboration residency program, it attempted modern applications and creative reinterpretations of cheolhwa buncheong ware.
