을묘왜변의 제주성전투 연구: 사찬자료를 중심으로

Abstract

The record of the Battle of Jeju Castle is too small for the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty, so the process of the battle is not well known. We need the help of local data written by individuals to fill the unknown events of the Battle of Jeju Castle. Over many parts, the fragments of personal records could fill the gaps in historical materials. In this manuscript, several facts about the Battle of Jeju Castle can be confirmed through the convenience of private data. As a result of reviewing various conditions that the Japanese pirates' intrusion route to Jeju was Hwabukpo Port recorded in the TamnaKinyeon(耽羅紀年), it was sufficiently proved that Hwabukpo was the entry route to Jeju. And the Battle of Jeju Castle was not in a day on June 27. Since the invasion on the 21st, they have been fighting for three days, and they have been victory on the 27th. It was argued that the place where the battle was won was the place where the last Japanese colonist collapsed on the high hill and the site of Unjudang Pavilion on the eastern hill and the southern hill of Namsu-gu Water Bridge(南水口) across the Garakcheon Stream dale. It was a battle prepared by the court's special consideration for Jeju and the defense system of famous officials in Jeju-mok. And it was a battle made with the wisdom and tactics of a notable public official Kim Soo-moon. It is of greatest significance to the Battle of Jeju Castle in that it was 70-member commando organization led by Jeju natives, who were united with Kim Soo-moon's leadership and representative of Jeju people. And the Battle of Jeju Castle accomplish big victory with natives in Jeju without the help of the government military.
