AB - This study argues that changes in the time system that governs everyday life change the time and space that make up the ritual, and ultimately change the ritual itself. Therefore, analyzing the time and space of a ritual is the same as studying the ritual. It's important. From this perspective, focusing on 『Jujagarye』, we attempted to examine the spatial and spatial awareness of Koreans in rituals by analyzing ritual structure and symbolism through discussions on ritual time and space.
The procedures that form an important transition point in the process of mourning are the deathbed, the cemetery arrival(an act of stopping crying), and the second anniversary of a memorial service(the last ancestral rites), which are temporal changes from 3 days to 3 months to 3 years after the death, spatially speaking, It turns out that there is a transition from the space of life to the space of death to the space of ancestors. Through this, in order to overcome the process of separation caused by the irreversible event of death and achieve the goal of returning to daily life, the understanding of time and space is symbolized and placed in each procedure and step, making death a natural cycle. It was found that it was perceived as a process and an inevitable event that occurred to humans, and that it was attempted to be overcome through ritual.
