 Before discussing the current status of Goryeo cultural heritages, it is necessary to briefly explain to what the term “cultural heritages” refers. The term “cultural heritages” is quite contested and has begun to change in recent years. In the past, it had referred to tangible artifacts and sites or intangible art or customs which were created some time in the past and passed down in a culture or society until today. From our contemporary perspective, these heritages are considered to be the property of a nation state (representing its citizens) or an ethnic group. But as these are relatively modern conceptualizations, the people who created and used such heritages in the past may not have – in some cases most certainly would not have – considered them property of a nation or a people as we do today.
-Traditionally, such heritages have been designated by “authorities” – namely scholars, politicians, or other leaders of society – who have deemed them to be of importance to preserve. Cultural heritages may be preserved for a variety of reasons and to serve a variety of functions: to serve as symbols of national identity (both defining what it means to be a citizen of said nation and to justify the authority of the current administration), to glorify or memorialize the past, to be aesthetically consumed (as in artwork), to serve as evidence or data points for historical facts (such as historic documents and archeological sites), to serve as a real-world example in history education, and more. However, in recent years, scholars have begun to argue that the designation of cultural heritages should be undertaken not only by leaders of society and academia, but ordinary citizens as well – especially members of those social groups which have been thus far suppressed by society’s leaders, such as ethnic or religious minorities or those of the lower class. There is also a shift in perspective from seeing heritages as objects of the past which have a singular interpretation, to seeing them as objects which are living parts of contemporary people’s lives that are subject to multiple and changing interpretations.<ref>This background information on cultural heritages is a summary of the prior research review I undertook for my Master’s thesis, which can be accessed by clicking this link.</ref>

 Within this context, we can look at the nature and role of Goryeo cultural heritages in our society today. On an international scale, the primary institution for designation of cultural heritages is UNESCO. UNESCO has four types of heritages: World Cultural Heritage Sites (your typical historic sites and monuments), Memories of the World (documentary heritage), Intangible Cultural Heritages (including music, dance, cuisine, sport, customs, ceremonies, festivals, and more), and Natural Heritage Sites (sites of ecological importance). Currently, South Korea has 47 heritages registered with UNESCO, while North Korea has four. Among these, three are related to Goryeo: Haeinsa Temple (including the Tripitaka Koreana) and the ''Jikji'' in South Korea, and Historic Monuments and Sites in Gaeseong in North Korea.
