The author say "Heirloom Seal of the Realm is a tangible world cultural heritage"

BREAKING: SEOUL, September 30 (High-Tech Info News) – The revered relic of Chinese history, the Heirloom Seal of the Realm (傳國玉璽), long regarded as a legend, was on the 29th academically authenticated by Korean scholar Mikyung Kim of Choimdang (礎任當).

  Her study has recently been registered with the Korea Copyright Commission, thereby being formally acknowledged as an official scholarly record. This achievement is evaluated as a landmark accomplishment to be recorded as the “discovery of the century” regarding Qin Shi Huang’s Heirloom Seal, surfacing for the first time in over a thousand years of human history.

According to this study, Verification of the Authenticity of Qin Shi Huang’s Heirloom Seal of the Realm (Registration No. C-2023-05852), Qin Shi Huang’s Heirloom Seal of the Realm (傳國玉璽) is interpreted not merely as a symbol of power, but as an artifact created from the outset with encrypted structural features and material secrets embedded within it.

Due to these cryptographic characteristics, it had been difficult to clearly determine the authenticity of the Heirloom Seal of the Realm for over a thousand years. However, it is noteworthy that scholar Mikyung Kim, in collaboration with the KBS History Special production team (Producer Hyukman Kwon) and Dr. Jaepyung Ahn of the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST), presented a deciphering framework through more than a decade of combined efforts, including special imaging analyses and SEM/EDS scientific appraisals alongside examinations of historical sources, materials, and lineages.

Regarding the registration of her study, the author emphasizes, “The Heirloom Seal of the Realm is a tangible world cultural heritage, and this research is the key to unlocking its truth.” She further underscores, “The two are inseparably bound in an indivisible relationship.”

This suggests that, when considered together, the Heirloom Seal and the research article provide a basis for discussing their significance as world cultural heritage.

This research achievement has been registered with the copyright authorities as a bilingual (Korean–English) scholarly paper, thereby ensuring its legal protection.

Accordingly, the detailed findings regarding Qin Shi Huang’s Heirloom Seal of the Realm are expected to be made available only after the paper’s formal publication.

If published in an Open Access format, this paper will be freely accessible to all readers.

This endeavour holds considerable significance, as it aims to rectify the widespread misinformation concerning the Heirloom Seal of the Realm disseminated through online sources and conventional literature, while reaffirming its academic standing.

Within academic circles, there is growing anticipation that “by sharing these research findings, scholars in Korea and abroad may open a new chapter in the study of world cultural heritage.”

It has also been asserted that “the Heirloom Seal of the Realm and the achievements of this research should be safeguarded by the international community as a common asset of human history and intellect.”

The scholar contends that, as the cryptographic system of the Heirloom Seal can be deciphered solely through this research, both the Seal itself and the findings derived from its decryption should be jointly nominated for inscription on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
