abstract
As this generation is experiencing turbulent changes, transformation takes place both in human and urban areas. Building structures and urban environments that are closely intertwined with cities are significant elements for human lifestyles, and one of the environmental elements that create diversity is`murals Murals provide improved environments or it marks a place of resting. Urban murals established itself as a new urban environmental element as it expanded its territory within cities, and it provides benefits for the people. It acts as an environmental help for the people, and it also provides a positive emotional effect. Thus, I would like to take an in-depth look at urban murals, which provide various benefits and advantages for the people. Through the research process regarding urban murals, the study progressed with an objective to contribute at least miniscule positive influences for the development of urban murals. Urban murals are dispersed across numerous areas, but this study established Seoul as its main category, and its subcategories include 5 selective major tourist attractions or residential areas with high floating population volume. The murals found in the sub-classifications of the subcategories were observed and further classified according to its themes. Based on the thematic classification, a survey was conducted on various age groups to determine the preferred mural types from the spectators` perspective. I believe that the results of this study can be used as a reference for identifying the preferred mural types for future mural paintings.
