However, minimum standard of socio-economic level are required for exiles to keep their lives. Until the first half of the 17th century, several islands such as Geojedo, Jeju, Namhae and Jindo had been used for deporting exiles. At the second half of the 17th century, the problem that exiles are sent to only small number of islands repetitively was brought up, encouraging expansion of a target area. Separating before and after the 17th century, the current study analyzed 1,732 islands for exile appeared in Annals of the Choson Dynasty, Seungjeongwon Diary. The results show that the area mentioned by rule accounts for the majority. It confirms that many exiles were sent to Ganghwa island and Gyodong of Gyeonggi. Those cases were mainly done to prince, the royal family or king to prevent them from doing something corrupt in the future. Beside this, there were also Chuksando included in territorial sea of Gyeongsang Province and Pajido of Chungcheong Province, but they only took small proportion. In this process, Heuksando and Wido were started to be showed up at the late 17th century, which proves the fact that the number of islands for exile had increased at this time. During the Late Choson Dynasty, island for exile had expanded to various areas. While Geojedo and Jeju occupied main place, the number of exile to Heuksando also increased. In addition, lots of island of Jeolla province such as Geumgabdo, Chujado, Sinjido, Jido, Imjado, Yeodo, Sado, Nalodo, Mado and Baeglyeongdo, Chodo of Hwanghae Province were appeared.

This trend of extending island for exile reflects the change in island, because gun and eup are needed in this area. In other words, island for exile areas had experienced changes under military and socioeconomic conditions since the second half of 17th century. They make island for exile areas extend.
