The purpose of this study is to investigate ideological tendency of publishing process from 「Seokdam unofficial history and Diary」 to 「Kyungyeon Diary」. Confucianism scholars in Chosun period recorded public and private events specifically and sincerely in diary style which they contemplated on in a daily life. Among the records, manuscript and original copy of records written by Yulgok Yi I were read attentively. Kyungyeon Diary was completed in his age 46. Kyungyeon Diary is a record in diary style of chronological form which includes major events and comments on figures in detail. Bedsides Kyungyeon Diary, this record has been also named as 「Seokdam Diary」, 「Seokdam unofficial history」, and 「Seokdam Reminiscence」. Kyungyeon Diary is a historical material through which social thoughts of Yulgok can be found - Yulgok applied his experiences made by direct participation in political affairs to social revolution. The contents of this paper are composed of review of 『collection』, woodblock printed-book, and title, ideological tendency of woodblock printed-book, review on ideological tendency. This paper investigated an issue related to the names such as 「Seokdam Diary」, 「Seokdam unofficial history」, and 「Kyungyeon Diary」. In addition, the title of 「Kyungyeon Diary」 and whether 「Kyungyeon Diary」 is authentic or not were reviewed. And there are same number of volumes and same contents as a problem requiring further study. 「Kyungyeon Diary」 and 「Seokdam Diary」 has a same title. 「Kyungyeon Diary」 is the title of woodblock printed-book for 「Yulgok collection」 but 「Seokdam Diary」 or 「Seokdam unofficial history」 was manuscript, not formal woodblock printed-book. The author raised questions about system of published book and manuscript, and examined name and characteristics of 「Kyungyeon Diary」 and 「Seokdam Reminiscence」 through interpretation of woodblock printed-book. And the author drew a genealogical chart of compiler’s thoughts by investigating when and what form 「Kyungyeon Diary」 was included in 「Yulgok collection」. Accordingly, issues for woodblock printed-book of published book, 「Yulgok collection」 and manuscript system such as 「Seokdam Diary」 etc. were made clear. And an issue related to interpretation about including 「Kyungyeon Diary」 and 「Seokdam Diary」 to 『Annals of the Joseon Dynasty』 and 『Korean Munjipchonggan』 etc. could be somewhat investigated. This paper can examine a diary style of awakening book of the people where Yulgok’s academic knowledge, thoughts, moreover political ideology, vision about awakening of the people etc. are synthetically contained. The author compared system and ideological tendency of 「Kyungyeon Diary」 with 『Records of the grand Historian』 written by Sima Qian. For then sensitive, political problems, later Yulgok school scholars sensitively responded over selection of title. This is also the problem of then age as well as development of ideological tendency. And as 「Kyungyeon Diary」 was also named as 「Seokdam Diary」 etc., it requires strict review on whether the diary is public or private, official or unofficial history relating to comments on figures and criticism.
