Until now, the study of Confucius thought was accomplished through illuminating the meaning of benevolence and finding out the fruition method of benevolence. Almost researchers concluded that the benevolence is the perfect virtue and we should try to get to the benevolence constantly. That is to say, self-culture is recognized a concept of persistence such as a constant effort. However, when we look into the contents <The Analects of Confucius>, we can find out the new pattern of self-culture concept. In <The Analects of Confucius>, we can find out some phrases which Confucius only admitted Anyeoun(顔淵) among his disciples. Jakong(子貢), one of the Confucius disciples, said to his teacher that “Anyeoun(顔淵) is a smart person, because he realizes ten facts when he listens to one fact.” Confucius answered “he does.” Also king asked to Confucius, “Who enjoys your teaching among your disciples?”, Confucius answered, “Anyeoun(顔淵) enjoyed learning, but now he died and now there is no one who enjoys learning.” Lots of researchers have explained that Confucius admitted Anyeoun(顔淵) because of his constant effort and practice. But the reason Confucius admitted Anyeoun(顔淵) was not because his constant effort, but because his depth practice. He set up a clear goal and he tried not to make a mistake again. So the self-culture of new pattern which we can find from Anyeoun(顔淵) is calculated practice, intended practice, and depth practice. So the purpose of this study illuminates the meaning of the self-culture again.
