Files in Category:Yi Sun-sin Bridge

[edit]

The bridge was completed in 2012, there is no freedom of panorama in South Korea, thus permission from the architect is needed.

Boy, this is a really thin rational. The "Types of protected work" under Copyright rules by territory/South Korea clearly refers to works of art. This bridge is a public piece of infrastructure. The country/people of South Korea own this structure and is seen and used by thousands of people. How could pictures of government owned infrastructure possibly be misconstrued as violating a Copyright! Every inch of a road, a building, a sidewalk, any public infrastructure, is designed by an engineer somewhere. And their efforts are duly compensated and placed in the public domain for use by all.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Steve46814 (talk • contribs) 00:58, 20 January 2021‎  (UTC+8)

  • According to enwiki, it was designed by Yooshin corporation and was constructed by Daelim Industrial Company. The only question @A1Cafel and Steve46814: , is Yooshin corporation an architectural firm or an engineering firm. But upon the first reading it seems that Yooshin is the architectural firm and Daelim is the engineering firm. In countries like France, bridges with distinct architecture (like suspension or cable-stayed bridges) are considered artistic works of architecture. Unsure about the case of SoKor.

  • According to the Yooshin website. [1] Yooshin Engineering Corporation is an "engineering" firm. Steve46814

 Keep There is no freedom of panorama in South Korea. However, it seems that South Korea does not view bridges as copyrighted architectures. Ox1997cow (talk) 02:29, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Keep According to South Korean copyright law (see art. 4 no. 5) "Architectural works including buildings, architectural models and design drawings;" Non-building structures are not mentioned.Jklamo (talk) 20:28, 20 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Close as Kept per comments above. -- Infrogmation of New Orleans (talk) 20:09, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
