Abstract

There were three officers who witnessed Im-Oh-Hwa-Byun. They were Yoon Sook, Kwon Jeong-chim and Lee Gwang-hyeon. These three officers recorded what they saw and heard at the field in details to hand down the fact to the next generations. Their records could be ascertained in 「Diary of Yoon Sook」, 「Diary of Kwon Jeong-chim」 and 「Diary of Lee Gwang-hyeon」. In particular, the record of Yoon Sook has never been introduced or facilitated in existing studies. 「Diary of Yoon Sook」 is the record that the on-duty officer on the day of Hwa-Byun to present a highly historic value. 「Diary of Kwon Jeong-chim」 contains the most volume of contents and has rich description on the situation then, but it has not been verified for its genuineness of its contents through comparison with other data. Unlike the two earlier-mentioned records, 「Diary of Lee Gwang-hyeon」 was given the spotlight of the academic circle and general public from the early days, but there has been certain disputes on whether it was a fabricated work and its contents. In addition, for the previous description of Im-Oh-Hwa-Byun, only 「Diary of Lee Gwang-hyeon」 was mainly utilized that the criticism and verification on the historic data under the relative point of view were not properly made. This thesis is intended to display the characteristics, nature, limitations and issues of the records of three persons who held the historic writing at the time of Im-Oh-Hwa-Byun, namely, 「Diary of Yoon Sook」, 「Diary of Kwon Jeong-chim」 and 「Diary of Lee Gwang-hyeon」m and takes a look at the genuineness of contents.
