ABSTRACT

Chunryung Three Geniuses[天嶺三傑] refers to three saints, Gujolam(九拙菴) Yanghee(梁喜)(1515~1581), Okye(玉溪) Nojin(盧禛)(1518~1578), and Chungryun(靑蓮) Leehuback(李後白)(1520~1578). They were old friends and taught by Dangock(唐谷) Jungheebo(鄭希輔) together. Okye and Chungryun were born in Jigok-myeon in Hamyang and Gujolam was born in Sudong-myeon in Hamyang. Gujolam and Okye were buried in Jigok-myeon in Hamyang and Chungryun was buried in a family burial ground in Pa-ju. They entered government service as passing Samasi(司馬試) and the civil service examination. They were Neo-Confucianism scholars and devoted to their parents. Okye received Jungrye(旌閭) as a devoted son and even granted a posthumous epithet of Munhyogong(文孝公). Ancestral shrines were set up at Dangju(糖州) lecture hall in Hamyang and Changju(滄州) lecture hall in Namwon to cherish Okye and another ancestral shrine was set up at Seobong(瑞峯) lecture hall in Gangjin to cherish Chungryun. It is considered to be moved to Hamyang. The other shrine for cherishing Gujolam is at Guchun(龜川) lecture hall in Hamyang as one of the six noble man. Okye and Chungryun were poets and wrote traditional three-verse Korean poems. They were people of great integrity and became a minister, top official. Chungryun granted a posthumous epithet of Munchunggong(文淸公) because of his high integrity. However, Gujolam hasn’t received a posthumous epithet. Also, Okye and Chungryun authored a book of literature collection but Gujolam didn’t write much and his writing has been left in a part of Youngseongsego(龍城世槁). A collection book of Gujolam should be published. His final status was a vice minister but he obtained a minister position after his death. So Chunryung Three Geniuses became a same position after all. Chunryung Three Geniuses, Gujolam Yanghee, Okye Nojin, and Chungryun Leehuback, who had both learning and virtue, being the right man as a minister, influnced local culture and politics. They are the pride of Hamyang and the model of a scholar as being virtuous, erudite, proficient in literature.
