Yang Kyong-Woo was the influential writer who has worked in the age of King gwanghae to King seonjo in the middle of the Joseon Dynasty. 『Jehosiwha(霽湖詩話)』 written by him is significant book published in the 17C. It is unique that this book deals with form and rhythm. 『Jehosiwha(霽湖詩話)』 deserves to be praised for playing a leading role in the history of Chinese poetry criticism in Korea. Next, 『Jehosiwha(霽湖詩話)』 is important because it commented in depth over on the Tang’s poetical style of Chinese poetry, which had been in fashion for much of the end of the 16C. This book is like a bridge linking between the early years of the Chosun and the late of Chosun Dinasty. Lastly, it is noteworthy that 『Jehosiwha(霽湖詩話)』 focuses on poets and works of the time. This book is a new starting-point of criticisms of the day. I categorize 『Jehosiwha(霽湖詩話)』 by content; Yongsa(用事), Siche(詩體), versification, rhythm, rhyme, poetry criticism. It is similar in some ways to a traditional criticism with regard to Yongsa(用事), Siche(詩體), versification. But discussing rhythm and rhyme in poems is unusual criticism method. In this thesis, characteristics of poetry criticism of 『Jehosiwha(霽湖詩話)』 are as follows; ① poetical rhetoric and emphasis on poetic words. ② Yongsa(用事), the use of past events which includes Jumwha(點化), chiseling in poetic terms. ③ rhythm and rhyme. ④ the Tang’s poetical style of Chinese poetry. These subjects are several key issues which are dealed with in 『Dongin-siwha(東人詩話)』. Still, it’s discussions not only took a step forward but are also segmented and concrete. In short, 『Jehosiwha(霽湖詩話)』 succeeds to method of the traditional poetry criticism and creates new brand ones. So it has a historical significance in poetic criticism history.
