A Study on the Direction of Digital Heritage in the Post-Covid Era

Since the covid-19 pandemic, the environment for enjoying cultural heritage has changed dramatically. As a response to this, the development and distribution of digital heritage contents has become important. This study is a study on the direction of digital heritage content in the post-corona era. To this end, the changes in the form of viewing cultural heritage and the introduction of digital heritage after covid19 were reviewed, and the changes in digital heritage contents in the post-covid era were analyzed. Changes in cultural policies for the dissemination of digital heritage and the active introduction and utilization of digital technology have played a significant role in the dissemination of cultural heritage. However, one-time exhibition contents, temporary fads of specific contents or technologies, lack of the roadmap, and lack of storytelling and business model bring about the weakening of Digital Heritage's competitiveness. In order to overcome this, it is necessary to develop a platform that can share basic data for storytelling that understands the intrinsic value of cultural heritage, development of digital heritage contents for the underprivileged, and production of cultural heritage contents. This will help develop and spread the digital heritage field. High-quality digital heritage can inspire the selection of materials for other cultural contents such as movies, dramas, animations, and games, and can greatly help popularize cultural heritage, develop related industries, and nurture professional human resources.
