The discussion on the record of the performance and its change to be discussed in this paper focuses on the part of the Yeonhang(燕行) experience. However, the period was limited to data from the 18th and early 19th centuries. The reason for this is that the imitation of the text, the description of the text, and the extensibility are distinctively expressed in this period record. The imitation of the Yeonhang(燕行) text, the explanation and extension, was a kind of practice. But this practice can not necessarily be viewed as a negative view. Yeonhang texts until the mid-18th century imitate Kim Chang-up's <Yeonhang diary> and endeavor to demonstrate the way to Beijing. By the mid and late 18th century, it became impossible to distinguish what part was already quoted and what part was recorded by oneself. As the Yeonhang record data is accumulated and the search function is increased, the researchers have tried to identify their value. But the result was paradoxical. The individualized evaluation of the single text was largely similar to previous records. If so, can we say that all of them are ineffective and worthless? Rather, after Kim Chang-up's <Yeonhang diary>, it would be meaningful to look at the similarities and common causes of records that are common in the Yeonhang record. In this paper, I will examine the practices and the mechanism of writing around Yeonhang texts in the 18th and 19th centuries.
