Abstract

Hwang Yoon-seok lived in 18C. At that time as conflicts in politics was becoming more acute in the central government's main political parties, such as No-ron, So-ron and Nam-in. And there was the boundary between the central and local government. So it was the time of a new challenge to the local intellectuals. Because of the appearance of new leadership, that is ‘Kungwhasaejuck’ which were grown up in capital region, the local intellectuals' opportunity to participate in politics was dwindled away. Especially Hwang Yoon-seok came from CheonLa Province which was the place of original rebellion in the reign of Yeongjo(英祖) who was pushing ahead with a policy of Tang-Pyong(蕩平). Hwang Yoon-seok made efforts to establish his identity as part of No-ron to overcome his discrimination. So he asserted that he studied under Kim won-haeng and successed to the learning of Song si-yeaul. However, although Hwang Yoon-seok's academic standing was No-ron, his career as governmental officials was depended upon by influence of So-ron. He was recommended by So-ron which was against the opposing party, No-ron. It was possible for him to go into the central government. Afer all, his Career as Governmental Officials and political position was influenced by the political direction related to So-ron. He considered that he belonged to No-ron. But his political position was influenced by So-ron. Finally, there was considerable gap between his academic standing and political position. That was inevitable choice to overcome his limitations belonging to a local intellectual in CheonLa Province.
