Abstract

This article aims to consider the characteristics and the trend of that times of Tongsinsahaengrok(the envoy mission account in Joseon era), especially studying Gyeonmunnok(the records of personal experience) in it. Overall 18 copies of records (8 in 17 centuries, 10 in 18 centuries) are verified to exist among the 40 copies known so far. The true records of war prisoners during the Japanese invasion of Korea presented the formal model of the writing style of Tongsinsahaengrok during the late Joseon and affected the attitude toward writhing of it. The examples of true records are Haedongjegookgi(海東諸國記) by SinSukJu, Ganyangrok(看羊錄) by KangHang, Wolbonghaesangrok(月峯海上錄) by Jeong HeeDeuk. These texts had affected the writing style and attitude of Gyeonmunnok in Tongsinsahaengrok written in 17 and 18 century. In this article, those records are considered to be the origins of Gyeonmunnok. In the light of development by era, Gyeonmunnok can be divided into two distinctive periods; 'the formation of writing attitude and system of Gyeonmunnok' and 'the orientation toward diversification and pursuit of knowledge. The writing attitude of the earlier one was so insignificant that it was recognized just as a part of Tongsinsahaengrok. The systematic aspect was not in a good phase. In 18 century, Gyeonmunnok was written in much more various ways. When it comes to Gyemitongsinsahang, new and diverse records were created by an unprecedented, or innovative view on Japan. However, the search of Japanese intelligence as a pursuit of qualitative change of Gyeonmunnok was bound to radically decline because Tongsinsahaengrok, the center of generating these knowledge, didn't progress anymore due to internal and external factors.
