대한제국기 이후 황실 소유 토지의변화 양상 －원서동을 중심으로－

Abstract

Large-scale state land is a major factor determining urban space. This thesis is a study looking at how the city changed as the imperial family lands, which occupied a significant part of Seoul, changed. The process of change was analyzed with the case of Wonseo-dong, which was located next to Changdeokgung Palace among the vast amount of land owned by the imperial family and occupied many of the imperial estates. In the Joseon Dynasty, Wonseo-dong had facilities to protect and support Changdeokgung Palace. Due to the financial arrangement of the imperial family during the reign of the Residency-General, all imperial lands were nationalized except for a part of the site of Changdeokgung Palace and the site of Bukyeong. During the Japanese colonial period, some land was purchased for the maintenance of the imperial family, but it was not properly operated due to poor management. After liberation, all property owned by the imperial family was classified as national property and was nationalized. Except for historical monuments such as palaces, they became state property and were sold. The process of state ownership and privatization of imperial family property is that the imperial family finances were organized with an excessively excessive acceptance of the entire government and some exceptions in the first place. Second, there is poor management of the imperial land due to the excessive supervision and management system of Yi Wangjik and the Government General. Finally, after the liberation, many major lands were privatized as the royal family finances were urgently arranged. Wonseo-dong is an area closely related to Changdeokgung Palace. Changdeokgung was the core place of power and the residence of the imperial family, and there were facilities supporting Changdeokgung in Wonseo-dong. During the Japanese colonial period, Changdeokgung Palace was used only as a living space for the imperial family, and after liberation, even that was lost and became a cultural property, a historical monument. The relationship between Wonseo-dong and Changdeokgung Palace was completely severed, and lands owned by the royal family in the past were developed individually.
