국도國都 풍수의 한‧일 비교연구 ― 한양과 교토[京都]를 중심으로

Abstract

The objective of this study is to identify feng-shui theory applied to the location of Hanyang in Korea and Kyoto in Japan to analyze the reason and logic for applying mutually different feng-shui theory to both cities. One of the matters which should be first considered in the selection of cities is the composition of 4 mountains(玄武: black tortoise, 朱雀:red phoenix, 靑龍: blue dragon, 白虎:white tiger) whih surround city. For Hanyang(漢陽), the location surrounded by mountain with influence of feng-shui book of China was considered. However, the location where 4 directions are composed of mountain, river, road and pond was selected for location of Kyoto(京都). While the bibo(裨補) to supplement the defect of feng-shui is form bibo through tree, wood and pond in the case of Hanyang, compass bibo to avoid Kimon(鬼門) compass meaning ominous compass where ghost haunts and the method to supplement feng-shui defect by planting specific tree in the relevant compass are applied in the case of Kyoto. The right theory is that feng-shui was originated in China and propagated to each country in East Asia. Feng-shui theory can be largely divided into tomb theory and house theory and the selection of tomb is notably affected by tomb theory and the selection of house and city is affected by house theory. According to the result of this study, it was analyzed that the selection of house and city was affected by tomb theory in Korea, the selection of city was affected by house theory in Japan. This eventually means that feng-shui theory is divided into tomb use and house use. Namely, it means that originated in China and propagated to each country in East Asia, feng-shui theory is applied to mutually different theory and developed, depending on the geographical and environmental factor of each country.
