Criteria for Statistics of Korean Cultural Heritage Located Abroad
  • The OKCHF endeavors to regularly collect relevant information in order to deliver rapid, accurate, and up-to-date statistics on Korean cultural heritage located overseas.
  • The statistics are calculated after reviewing the collected information, and the results are made public on the websites of the OKCHF and Cultural Heritage Administration every year on January 1.
  • To improve the accuracy of the statistics, cultural heritage that is determined to not be of Korean origin or is revealed during survey and research to have been lost is excluded from the calculation.
