The Arirang Master Designation Program is a celebration of the exceptional achievements of
high-level artists in the realm of intangible cultural heritage, aiming to increase awareness
of their contributions.
Based on the relevant Program Guide adopted by the International Advisory Group (IAB), the Arirang
Master Designation aligns with the spirit of the 1980 UNESCO Recommendation.
The initiative, inaugurated in April 2023, led to the designation of Arirang Masters by the IAB,
contributing to the promotion and preservation of intangible cultural heritage globally.
