Objective : "Shinchanbyeokonbang"(printed in 1613) was written by Heo Joon, who is an author of "Dongeuibogam"(also printed in 1613). Even though "Dongeuibogam" has "Onyeok"(chapter for pestilence), Heo Joon wrote technical book for pestilence as name as "Shinchanbyeokonbang". Therefore, we try to compare "Shinchanbyeokonbang" with "Dongeuibogam" "Onyeok". Method : We compared formation and contents of "Shinchanbyeokonbang" with "Dongeuibogam" "Onyeok". Result : "Shinchanbyeokonbang" has entirely new contents than "Dongeuibogam" "Onyeok" in somehow, almost contents of "Dongeuibogam" "Onyeok" are in "Shinchanbyeokonbang" though. Also "Shinchanbyeokonbang" reorganized prescrptions for pestilence not only in "Dongeuibogam" "Onyeok" but also in "Dongeuibogam" ; "Han", "Hwangdal", "Hwa", "Yinhoo", "Hyeol", "Seup" and "Sasoo" Conclusion : "Shinchanbyeokonbang" was printed by Heo Joon at the same time when "Dongeuibogam" was printed in 1613. However, "Shinchanbyeokonbang" has newly formation and contents is some aspects comparing to "Dongeuibogam" "Onyeok", which is the similar chapter for pestilence because this book is the technical book for pestilence.
