Sorabol 1000: A Real-Time Digital World of the Silla Royal Capital

Over the past decade, TRIC has led the Sorabol 1000 project—an independent digital restoration initiative focused on the ancient Silla royal capital located in Gyeongju, South Korea’s most historically rich city. Sorabol 1000 is a cinematic digital world that brings to life every element of the Silla capital—including terrain, vegetation, architecture, clothing, artifacts, culture, people, mythology, and history—within a single real-time platform. Designed for immediate use across various content fields such as gaming, film, media art exhibitions, and education, this platform delivers a high-quality visual experience. It allows audiences to immerse themselves in a moment where past and present converge, evoking the sensation of time travel.
