HISTORY
The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism was initially launched in its early form on November 4th, 1948 by the National Government Organization Act as the Bureau of Public Information, Cultural Affairs Bureau under the Education Department, and the Tourism Contribution Bureau under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Transportation, as founded on October 2, 1961. The communications and cultural art divisions were merged, and with that the Ministry of Culture and Public Information was born on July 24, 1968. This measure was reversed on January 3, 1990 as the information division was separated, whereupon the Ministry of Culture was born. Following the revision of the National Government Organization Act on March 6, 1993, the Ministry of Culture and the Ministry of Youth and Sports were merged into the Ministry of Culture and Sports. The Ministry took over the Tourist Bureau from the Ministry of Transportation, and when the peoples government was launched on February 28, 1998, it was reorganized as the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, thereby becoming the core administrative body in charge of culture and tourism-related policies. Further revision was adopted on February 2008, merging the digital content responsibilities once under the management of the Ministry of Information and Communication, and the Government Information Agencys promotional activities became part of the newly-formed Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
