AB - The first volume of the Book of an Excursion to the Kyeryong Mountain(鷄龍山遊覽錄) was obtained by Prof. Kang Jeon Seob (my late father) in 1977 who noticed its importance as a Korean classical literature. The author is thought to be Mrs Kim of Kwangsan, whose husband, Song Kook Noh(宋國老), lived in Songchon, Whoeduk in the early 1900s.
Though its title reads, in the front cover, the Book of an Excursion to the Kyeryong Mountain in Chinese characters, but the book consists of two works transcribed in Korean. One is the same as the title, the other is the Account of a trip to the Onyang springs. The transcription is estimated to be done between May, 1903 when she went on the trip, and the beginning of December, 1906 before being completed as a book December 7, 1906 of the lunar calendar.
The author, when she was about 64 years old, wanted to get on a train for visiting a spa in the Onyang Region, for she heard that people in every corner of the country was travelling around by train. So she dared to plan to visit the Onyang springs by train, and after the trip she wrote the work.
The Account of a trip to the Onyang springs consists of about 6,000 characters. There she described the excitement of her first experience of a train trip, the scenes and manners being seen aboard, the impression of hotel facilities, in plain words with an observation peculiar to woman. We can find in the work the language of joy provided by the freedom from household duties, her curiosity the sort of which is often found at the early time of Flowering, and her resentments for signs of Japanese imperialism.
