ABSTRACT

Yumong-in was a governor and writer who left notable writings in various areas of Joseon’s politics and military, socio-economic, academic, ideological, and literary during the turmoil at home and abroad. Yumong-in went to China three times. There are a total of 24 documents left which Yumong-in wrote to the envoys to China. The document is not only extensive in content, but also shows the nomad’s perception. In this paper, the documents of a nomadic man were divided into five items, including pride and recognition of being talented but unhappy, recognition of the poor in sentences, criticism of the Bungdan system, perceptions related to Chinese affairs, governmental perceptions, and perceptions of the situation of the times. Yumong-in wrote many documents to the envoy leaving China at the time, and through his documents, he showed pride in his sentence and the recognition of the disadvantaged. There are many contents criticizing the Bungdang system in the nomad’s certificate. In the certificate written to Wolsa Lee, the psy󰠀chological state of a nomadic person who is troubled with the problems of friendship and Bung-dang. The nomad’s certificate provided meaningful information on the Chinese speculation system at the time. It looked at the selection of the members of envoys, the roles of each department, the procurement of speculative expenses, and the misconduct of the officer. It also confirmed the strong criticism of the nomads’ literary system and their desire to study in China. There were many practical ideas of introducing advanced civilizations in the documents of the nomads. You can confirm the nomad’s political perception in the request to learn to rule the country in China and return. In 『於于集』, there are 8 separate episodes which Yumong-in wrote to the envoys to China. I looked at 2 pieces. In the 送詩 in 1619, it was possible to confirm the change in perception of the situation of the nomadic times in a situation where the power of early Qing Dynasty became stronger.
