These photographs contain images of training at the Institute for Elite Farmers (Dongnongga Yeonsuwon), which became the New Village Training Institute (Saemaeul Yeonsuwon). The New Village Training Institute opened in January 1972, as a training institute for elite farmers within the Agricultural Cooperative College (Nonghyeop Daehakgyo) in Goyang-si (city), Gyeonggi-do (province). After moving to Farmers’ Hall (Nongmin Hoegwan) in Suwon-si (city) in April 1973, in May of the same year it was named as the New Village Leadership Training Institute (Saemaeul Jidoja Yeonsuwon). In April 1983 it moved to a newly constructed site in Yul-dong (town), Bundang-gu (borough), Seongnam-si (city) (its present location), and in January 1990, it was renamed the New Village Movement Central Training Institute (Saemaeul Undong Jungang Yeonsuwon).
