In this modern times, the influence of contemporary culture and lifestyle have enveloped communities and societies to the very core and has eroded the foundation of traditional beliefs, values and systems of livelihood with some communities being completely destroyed. Language is also overwhelmed by colonial and modern colloquial which have deprived the true meaning of elements of ICH, its expressions and the sanctity of its observance. Ritual which the paper will examine inculcates ceremonies and elaborate practices with varied significance that has been the subject of continuous debate as to its relevance, enormous resources invested, economic factor and social cost. This assessment is a comparative contextualizing of the ancient ritual of JongmyoJerye in the traditional Korean society and that of the Veibuli (veivagunuvi) vakavanuapracticed in the iTaukei (indigenous Fijian) community. These two ceremonies, I will argue, although reflect evolving intangible cultural heritage (ICH) and maybe distinctive have through time experienced changes and these purported transformations is manifested in the style, processes, and practice which to a greater extent affect in some way the mystical powers and positive wave of spiritual “luck” that is derived from dedicated and strict observance of such rituals; it is still maintained with its principles emphasized. Similarly it will be further argued that intangible cultural heritage safeguarding measures put in place by the communities, institutions and governments of both societies have to a greater extent allow for the continuity, recognition, observance and appreciation of the ceremonies in modern societies.
