국-영문 한국건축용어 사전 Korean-English Korean Architecture Term Glossary
There are many terms unique to Korean architecture which are difficult to translate and explain. This page serves as an overview of key terms needed to understand Korean architecture, along with suggestions for English translation of these terms as well as explanations. The terms include both the parts/pieces involved in Korean architecture, as well as styles of architecture. When possible, photos or diagrams have been included.
In Korean building architecture, there are three main sections: Roof (지붕 jibung), Wall (벽제 byeokje), and Foundation (기단 gidan). These each correspond respectively to heaven (천 天 cheon), human (인 人 in), and earth (지 地 ji). Harmony within this triad of heaven-human-earth (천인지 天人地 cheon-in-ji) is central to East Asian philosophy and can be seen in prominently in theory behind Korean architecture. Thus, the following architecture terms have been grouped by these three classic sections. However, there are some terms which can be seen throughout the entire structure, and these will be explained separately as "general terms."
