The Buncheong Kiln Site in Undae-ri, Goheung, is of considerable significance in the history of ceramics, both as the southernmost buncheong ware kiln site in the country — buncheong being a grey-green stoneware coated with white slip — and because it produced wares using a wide variety of buncheong techniques: inlay (sanggam), stamping (inhwa), sgraffito (bakji), dipping (deombeong) and brush-slip (gwiyal). In particular, the buncheong wares and kiln remains excavated from the two already-investigated kilns, No. 1 and No. 2, directly show the manufacturing techniques of the time, providing valuable material for clarifying the characteristics and development of buncheong ware.
