AB - This study is on the relation between reading novel and noble of Seoul in 18th century. For this purpose, I analyzed two lists of novels. One was written by Yun-Dukhee(尹德熙) and the other by Prince Sado(思悼世子). Also I surveyed the diary of Yu-Manjoo(兪晩柱). These data say that noblemen of Seoul in 18th century enjoyed chinese novels and in the chinese novels the proportion of human nature novels increased in late 18th century.
To trace the reading novels of noblewomen, I analyzed the list of novel in the back of Okwonjaehapkiyeon(옥원재합기연), the Korean novel, too. Different from noblemen, noblewomen did not enjoyed Chinese human nature novels, but enjoyed Chinese historical novels, and they preferred for korean novel to translated Chinese novels. Some scholars supposed that in 18th century noblewomen got the novles from rental shop, but I think that the customers of book rental shop were the lower class women, and noblewomen got the novels in their own family.
There was imbalance between reading novel and writing novel of noblemen. They were the enthusiastic novel readers, but they did not have the desire for writing. I supposed it was because of their abundant life. They had the possibility in real life, so had no desire to realize in fiction. On the other hand, women of upper class are thought to be the writer of Korean novel. In the culture of reading Korean novel, the reader was not separated from writer, So the readers could write stories more easily.
