At a glance… As a national treasure of Sukjong’s’Community Association’

During the reign of King Sukjong, the 19th king of Joseon (1661 to 1720, reign of 1674 to 1720), there were three reigns. In each of these incidents called Gyeongshin (1680, Sukjong 6), Knight (1689, Sukjong 15), and Gapsul (1694, Sukjong 20), Hwanguk, the king suddenly replaced the ruling power of the court. It was mainly known as the story of Jang Hee-bin and Queen In-hyun in the royal historical drama, but for King Sukjong, it was a kind of matchmaker to strengthen the kingship amid fierce party struggles.

After arranging close friends in this way, Sukjong brought them together and held a kind of ‘Vow of Allegiance’ event. It is a royal ceremony held on August 30, 1680 (6th year of King Sukjong), a ritual held by the king to the gods of Heaven and Earth. The hoeming is a rite of loyalty dating back to the spring and autumn period of China, and during the Joseon royal family hoeming system, not only new contributors but also descendants of successive contributors gathered in one place. During the 6-year meeting of King Sukjong, a total of 489 people attended, and 412 people attended, excluding those who were elderly or injured.

A royal document produced by Nokhundogam (復勳都監) in 1694 (Sukjong 20) to commemorate the Hoe Ming Festival held in 1680.錄勳後 (hereinafter referred to as the Congregation of Congregational Associations)’ is promoted to a national treasure. It is an enormous scale document for fish, measuring 25m in length. The Cultural Heritage Administration announced on the 7th, “As a historical and academic value as a historical and academic value as a historical document showing the political situation of the 17th century, it is produced in an overwhelming size that cannot be found among royal relics, so it has excellent artistic quality as a craft.” Treasure No. 1513 It has been announced that the Gongsin Association will be designated as a national treasure.

It should be noted that there is a 14-year time difference between the Hoemeng Festival event and the Hoemeng Festival production. Seo-in, who was one of the political centers along with the Namin, became a contributor when he came to power in the wake of the Gyeongshin-hwanguk in 1680. This is the time when the meeting ceremony was held. Then, in 1689 (15th year of King Sukjong’s), due to the issue of reprimanding the atomic force of Mr. This is Knight Hwan-guk. At this time, Seo-in’s reap and Song Si-yeol, who also attended the Hoe Ming Ceremony, opposed the censure of the prince, but was exiled and died after receiving a covenant. Most of the westerners were deprived of their public confidence.

After that, in 1694 (Sukjong 20), a sudden change took place. This is the case in which a man who opposed the rehabilitation movement for the reincarnation of the deputy Min (Queen Inhyeon) was angered and resigned from power and Seoin reinstated power. At this time, a total of six people (Kim Man-ki, Kim Seok-ju, Lee I-sin, North Korea, Won-ro, Park Bin) were given the title of ‘Bosa Contribution’ among the bookmakers who regained the status of contributors. It is also the time when the Gongsin Association, which was announced as a national treasure, was produced. In the document produced after 14 years of chaos, a total of 20 contributors and their descendants were listed, ranging from the government contributors to the government in 1392. In particular, it is highly appreciated in the academic world as it is possible to understand the historical situation of status grant (nok-hun, 錄勳), deprivation (sak-hun, 削勳), and recovery (bok hun, 復勳) through the description of achievements on the bosa contributor.

Congratulations to the Gongsinhoe Association are the Hoemengmun (會盟文) at the time of the celebration of the Hoemeng System, the Hoe Maengrok (會盟錄), which recorded a total of 489 people including the Bosa Gongsin, and the congratulatory text and prose to be posted on the Jongmyo Shrine. It consists of. It was written in neat writing on the lightly woven yellow silk. The length of the document, which is about 25m in width, is covered with red and blue silk on both ends and finished with a shaft decorated with jade on the top and bottom, which stands out for its splendor and neatness. At the end, the reason for the production and the date of production were written, and a national bird called’Simyeongjibo (施命之寶)’ was stamped to have a complete form as a royal document.

Hwang Jeong-yeon, curator researcher at the Cultural Heritage Administration, said, “It is estimated that the Joseon royal family produced Hoemengchuk for Eoram during the Hoemeng Festival, but only 3 Hoemeng axes were confirmed in the literature. It is the only one.” In particular, in the case of this Gongsinhoe Maengchuk, the related record, “Nokhundogamuigwe”, which can be used to closely grasp the production process of the Eoram-use Hoemengchuk, has a greater meaning. The Gongsin Association is housed in Jangseogak, the Central Research Institute of Korean Studies, and has never been released to the public due to its overwhelming size.

Along with this, the Cultural Heritage Administration announced that’Sangju Namjangsa Yeongsanhoe Gwaebuldo and Costume Relic’ and’Gumi Daedunsa Gyeongjang’ were designated as treasures respectively. The Gumi Daedunsa Gyeongjang was established in 1630 (The 8th Injo), and it is a very rare example of a Buddhist woodcraft in the Joseon Dynasty whose production period was clearly identified through prestigious texts. The relics of Namjangsa Temple in Sangju consist of a large Buddhist painting in the late 18th century with a height of 11 meters, a costume bag containing various costumes, and costume relics including a storage box.
