YÉOL, the Korean Heritage Preservation Society, started out with a modest goal of improving and beautifying the signage of cultural sites. YÉOL has grown through the enthusiastic participation of many who support the aspiration and ideals embodied in the meaning behind YÉOL. YÉOL has supported traditional artisans since 2006 and continues to collaborate with master artisans and aspiring young craftsmen through the YÉOL Artisan of the Year Award.
