Abstract

During King Sejong's reign in early Chosen Dynasty, the Korean science had been in full bloom. Among the many splendid achievements of the period, though most of them are not extant, astronomical instruments and clocks made for equipping the Royal Observatory are taken as typical works that reflect the characteristics of the King's scientific projects and discussed in the view point that what and how much a well-planned drive and a future-oriented leader can accomplish.
