The traditional Yin and Yang selection method is a nature-friendly selection method that reads the conditions of nature through the Chi-Gi(earthen energy) of the underground as well as the scenery of mountains and streams. Chi-Gi used for the selection method has been perceived as being unscientific as it merely rests at the level of a metaphysical, mystic ideology rather than at that of scientific proof, principle, or objective interpretation that may be quantified. However, various fields including science have shown an interest in identifying the actuality of Gi(energy). This study identified the actuality of Chi-Gi that exists in a constructional space out of the
intention to objectify the traditional selection method in order to make it a contemporary constructional design method against this backdrop. As regards approach methods, the study conducted an empirical research of 30 Korean general hospitals by using skilled earthen energy surveyors. As a result, the study was able to discover that Chi-Gi has a physical existence with a certain shape and measurement, and to prepare the map of Chi-Gi.
