While similar traditions are prac- ticed across Northeast Asia, Korea devel- oped a technique reflecting its own unique aesthetics and influenced Japanese prac- tices during the early Edo period. Mainly ornamenting everyday objects and furni- ture such as mirrors and chests, mother- of-pearl inlay expresses a diverse range of motifs, including scrollwork, chrysanthe- mums, dragons, and landscapes.

With the outbreak of the Korean War in 1950, the portraits of the Joseon kings were transferred to the southern city of Busan. Tragically, however, a fire at the portrait storage in Busan destroyed most of these representations of the Joseon kings and left only a few damaged examples. Thanks to the persistent efforts at the recuperation of the damage to these regal portraits by the National Palace Museum of Korea, this special exhibition can offer the public a chance to appreciate the major royal portraits that remain. At the exhibition, a total of nine royal portraits, including two of King Taejo, the founder of the Joseon Dynasty (1392–1910), were on display and the process of producing drawings of kings was explained. The exhibit also included documentary and pictorial materials including the uigwe royal protocols of Joseon that address portrait halls, called jinjeon, where royal portraits were enshrined and ceremonies for the royal paintings were performed, as well as ritual artifacts that were used at portrait halls, such as incense burners. Portrait of King Taejo on display at the exhibition Korean Heritage in Focus 06 07 Theme 2 described the methods and process for the production of royal portraits during the Joseon period. Also on display were introductions of the painters responsible for producing royal portraits and of other portraits by late-Joseon royal portrait painters, including Yi Myeong-gi and Yi Han- cheol, so that the audience could directly appreciate their mastery. Theme 3 was designed to show how the authority of royal portraits was considered on a level with that of the actual king of the day and displayed major royal portraits such as Royal Portrait of King Taejo (in blue dress), the only royal portrait that was (until a few years ago) housed continuously at a portrait hall (Gyeonggijeon Hall in Jeonju); Portrait of Prince Yeoning, depicting a young Yeongjo before he was enthroned as the 21st ruler of Joseon; Royal Portrait of King Yeongjo, representing a 51-year-old Yeongjo; Royal Portrait of King Cheoljong, showing how the 25th Joseon monarch looked at 31 years of age; and Royal Portrait of King Gojong, a portrait of The exhibition Royal Portraits and Portrait Halls of the Joseon Court the 26th ruler that is purported to have been executed by the painter Chae Yong-sin.

Historical records evidence how the king and courtiers mourned over the ashes of royal portraits when they were Theme 4 presented the jinjeon, a dedicated space for the enshrinement consumed by a fire at a portrait hall, and royal portraits were regularly of royal portraits.

Presented in this exhibition bows, just as with the king on the throne. as an example of the first type was a portrait hall for King Taejo, while Yeonghuijeon Hall and Seonwonjeon Hall represented the second type. The To effectively fulfill its purpose as described above, the exhibition and portrait hall built on Ganghwado Island for emergency purposes was also the roughly 100 artifacts on display were organized according to six themes: presented.

Ceremonies at portrait halls. that are assumed to have been installed in portrait halls along with royal portraits. Theme 6 displayed a diverse range of ritual objects and vessels For Theme 1, the history of Korean royal portraits and portrait halls was that were used in ceremonies at portrait halls such as Mokcheongjeon Hall explored mainly for the Goryeo and Joseon Dynasties, the temporal period (located in Kaesong, dedicated to portraits of Taejo) and Seonwonjeon Hall from which relatively large amounts of relevant records remain. (located within the Changdeokgung Palace complex). Korean Heritage in Focus 08 09 Production of Royal Portraits during Joseon During the Joseon Dynasty, portraits of all 27 of its rulers were produced in large numbers. In the case of the dynasty’s founder, King Taejo (r. 1392–1398), the number of portraits housed at Seonwonjeon Hall in Changdeokgung Palace reached as high as 26 pieces in the mid-Joseon era. King Yeongjo (r. 1724–1776), the longest-ruling monarch of Joseon, had multiple portraits produced at 10-year intervals and depicting him in diverse costumes. As for the last monarch of the dynasty, King Sunjong (r. 1907– 1910), as many as eight portraits were executed while he was still Crown Prince. The production of a royal portrait was a national undertaking subject to strict and intricate procedures. An ad hoc office in charge of the production process was set up and portrait painters were selected. Royal portrait painters were categorized into three types respectively responsible for drawing the face, for depicting the body, and for helping with mixing colors: lead painters, associate painters, and assistant painters. The number of royal portrait painters mobilized at a time was three to four at minimum and 13–14 at most. An example of the latter case can be found in the year 1900, when a fire at Seonwonjeon Hall required the reproduction of portraits of seven kings. To produce a royal portrait, an underdrawing was first made on oiled paper and silk was then pressed on top of the sketch to allow the drawing Portrait of King Taejo (in red dress) by Jeong Du-hui 2013; color on silk; 284 x 163.5 cm; National Palace Museum of Korea to be copied in ink onto the silk. With the underdrawing done, coloring began: the reverse was painted first, and then additional paint was applied to the front. This technique of “back side coloring” was commonly used for portraiture during the Joseon era for the purpose of enhancing the durability Paintings of the Joseon Kings and allowing naturalistic color development. Next, the portrait was mounted and a title was added to indicate to whom it belongs. Decorations, including and Their Portrait Halls tassels, were eventually added. Each step of royal portrait production was executed at a selected Text & photos by Cho Sun-mie, Professor Emeritus, Sungkyunkwan University auspicious time and date and was followed by rigorous inspection from the king and courtiers. Portraits that were produced with the utmost care and effort were enshrined at a jinjeon, or “portrait hall,” and the parade of the royal portrait to the portrait hall was honored with formalities equaling those Korean Heritage in Focus 10 11 offered to a living king. As such, a royal portrait was perceived as not just a began to suffer.

  • The History of Division in the Conception of National Literature
    1 The History of Division in the Conception of National Literature Seong-su Kim (Sungkyunkwan University) 1. The purpose of this article is to analyze the how the conception of the term Minjok Moonhak (national literature) has been perceived differently in South and North Korea. In other words, this article will examine how the modern concept of ‘Moonhak,’ Korean equivalent for ‘literature,’ which was shared by both Koreas during the colonial period, is now perceived differently due to ideological differences under the ‘socialist vs. liberal democracy’ system on the Korean Peninsula after division. The discussion of the division of the conception of national literature is conversely based on the premise that both Koreas have historically shared the same concept. Notwithstanding the system of division, which has lasted for more than 70 years, the speech community composed of spoken (Korean/Joseon- eo) or written (Hangul/Joseon-mun) language 1 is still viable; each language does not require interpretation and translation. This is fortunate, given that there is a high possibility that the Korean Peninsula will be reunited someday. When discussing the national literature of South and North Korea, academic discussion will be impossible if one side is consistently regarded as orthodox and disparages the other. If each country does not recognize the value of the writers and works of its counterpart because the two Koreas are caught up in the realms of ideology, Korean cultural heritage that encompasses both North and South Korea will be greatly reduced. From the perspective of Conceptual History [Begriffsgeschichte], which historically analyzes certain concepts and terms, ‘Korean literature and Joseon literature’ are not synonyms for ‘national literature,’ but are rather antonyms.

He was the king who also experienced various changes in construction and accomplished a large number of construction activities aggressively. Gojong could acquire the information and details about anarchitecture, through the experience of a lot of large-scale construction activities in a regency period of Heungseon-Daewongun(興宣大院君 ).After opening of a port, as the western culture and technology was flowed in Korea, the knowledge of western architecture also was introduced. Gwanmungak(觀 文閣 )was constructed in Kyeongbokgung Palace under that influence in 1888, but the construction was not successfully finished. Due to the failure of Gwanmungak, Gojong no more constructed a western architecture until 1897. He was aware of the merits of western architectures while living in the western architecture during Agwanpacheon(俄館播遷 ).And he led a lot of constructions of the western architectures in Kyeongungung(慶運宮 ).It is possible to arrange in two reasons about the interest in an architecture of Gojong. Firstly, Gojong was individually interested in the architectures, and he constantly accomplished constructions of new buildings from childhood. And secondly, Gojong thought that western architecture has an advantage in the international situations.

    Ttongsul From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Ttongsul, or feces wine, is a Korean traditional wine made from feces, Ttongsul particularly that of humans. Hangul Ttongsul was first widely Hanja introduced to the public by Vice Japan’s Yuka Uchida in 2013. She Revised Romanization Ddongsul found Dr. Lee Chang Soo who McCune–Reischauer Ttongsul makes this Korean traditional wine.[1][2] Contents 1 Production 2 Origin 3 Books referring to ttongsul 4 References 5 External links Production Ttongsul may be produced in either of two ways. The more time- consuming involves submerging a bamboo stick in a chamber-pot which contains feces and alcohol. It is left there for several months as it ferments, and the ttongsul is extracted from the bamboo.[3][4] A more rapid method, which may produce less favorable results, simply involves mixing alcohol and feces directly for several days.[5][6] Origin Medicinal compounds produced from feces have a long history in China[7] and Korea. As long ago as the Tang Dynasty, chicken manure was used this way. In Japan, equine feces have been believed to have medicinal efficacy and have been traditionally used as therapy of choice since Sengoku period. Equine feces is said to be especially effective in treating gunshot wounds by direct application to the area, or consumption by mouth or in aqueous mixture.[8][9] Recently, it is permitted to be on the market for Heo Jun "Dongui bogam ()" state prototype.[10][11] Other types of (1613) feces were historically used in medicines, including those of flying squirrels, bats, hare, sparrows [12] and silkworms.
