Abstract

This study aims to draw implications of Toegye’s ChonyangSongchal in Physical Education. For this purpose, this study investigated how Toegye’s concept of ChonyangSongchal can be understood and applied to Physical Education based on his moral view of human being. Using literature review as a research method, this study investigated the concept of ChonyangSongchal, focusing on Toegye’s Cheonmyeongdo and Cheonmyeongdoseolhuseo and used the method of selecting and analyzing the contents in which Toegye’s subjective experience concerning ChonyangSongchal was mentioned through diaries and literature. As a result, it was emphasized that ChonyangSongchal Toegye would mean was not simply a theoretical concept or moral discourse, but it should be accompanied by practical power centering around the education of movement (physical education). Based on this, this study drew its implications in physical education from a practical perspective. First, in Physical Education, ChonyangSongchal means studies to make efforts to become a sportsman practicing ethics in sports situations, developing moral nature, and it is noted that it has something in common with the meaning of Equilibrium and Harmony. Especially, in that Toegye emphasizes both morality and self-cultivation for the cultivation of character, the value of sports, the studies of motion can be found. At the same time, the reason why one should study tranquility to cultivate human nature can be found as well. Second, in Physical Education, Chonyang is understood as ‘concentration’, while Songchal is understood as ‘refraining’ desire or ‘reflecting on’ oneself. As an application, the sportsman should always stick to an unchanging attitude, cultivating concentration in serenity and training self-control in motion. Thus, as a method for utilizing it in the field of education, this study proposes ‘Jingzuo method (quiet sitting) and writing reflection diary’. Third, Toegye’s ChonyangSongchal has messages that it is necessary to maintain the balance between motion and serenity (equilibrium), instead of one-sided or inclined study in terms of ‘study method’ and that it is necessary to make efforts to apply the same attitude before and after the game (harmony), instead of concentrating and refraining only during the game in terms of ‘attitude.’ Thus, through this study, it is expected that the proposed method would be utilized in the actual education, emphasizing that Toegye’s ChonyangSongchal has a value as a solution concerning issue of Physical Education personality.
