We investigated the Jeung-Bo-Man-Byeong-Hoi-Chun (增補萬病回春, An enlarged edition of the Man-Byeong-Hoi-Chun), which is published in the 17th century, coming to a conclusion like the followings. 1. In Joseon(朝鮮), there was the J eung-Bo-Man-Byeong-Hoi-Chun which was made through revision and enlargement of the Man-Byeong-Hoi-Chun written by Gong Zhongxian of China. 2. There are two versions of the Jeung-Bo-Man-Byeong-Hoi-Chun pressed in Joseon, which are written by Kim Yuk(金堉) in 1656 and by Kim Seok-ju(金錫胄) in 1679. 3. The representative medical books of Joseon such as Eui-Rim-Chual-Yo-Sok-J ip (醫林撮要續集), Dong-Eui-Bo-Gam (東醫寶鑑), J e-Jung-Sin-Pyeon(濟衆新編) contained quotations from the J eung-Bo-Man-Byeong-Hoi-Chun(增補萬病回春), not from the Man-Byeong-Hoi-Chun (萬病回春). 4. The Jeung-Bo-Man-Byeong-Hoi-Chun(增補萬病回春) contained not only the essence of the Chinese medicine but also new medical systems reflecting actual circumstances of Joseon at that time. So, it can be recognized as the foundation of the Joseon medicine in the latter period of the dynasty.

The Sa-Ahm monk, who was believed to have existed in the middle of Cho-Seon Dynasty in Korea, have created an original Sa-Ahm's acupuncture method and written down, "Book of Sa-Ahm's 5 Element Acupuncture Method" using not only laws of creation and suppression in 5 element theory but also its main and other connected meridians according to the daignosis of visceras and bowels. Also the written time and background of its theory have not been known, and after obtaining Ji-San's book on Sa-Ahm's acupuncture method, I studied on them. The results are as follows : 1) The treatment chapter of Book of Sa-Ahm's 5 Element Acupuncture Method was written down by Sa-Ahm himself, and the chapter for Medical Experience was found to be written down by Ji-San. 2) It seemed that Sa-Ahm adopted the main ideas of "Eui Hak Jeong Jon(醫學正傳)" for the section of physiology, pathology and classification of disease symptoms the contents of which covered 40 of 43 parts, and the ideas of "Dong Eui Bo Gam(東醫寶鑑)" for YunGi treatise(運氣篇), and SangHan part(傷寒門) in classification of diease symptoms was intensified by the ideas of "Eui Hak Ip Moon(醫學入門)", and the contents of apoplexy, diseases characterized by acute diarrhea and vomiting, beriberi, diseases of oral cavity were intensified by the ideas of "Chim Ku Kyeong Hearn Bang(鍼灸經驗方)". 3) The written date of the Book of Sa-Ahm's 5 Element Acupuncture Method has been established as 1644 AD(22nd year of In Jo king of Cho-Seon Dynasty) after studying preface, contents and acknowledgement of Heo Im's "Chim Ku Kyeong Hearn Bang(鍼灸經驗方)". 4) The philosophic background of "Sa-Am Acupuncture Method(舍巖鍼法)" seems to be derived from the theories of "I Ching(周易)" and Yin Yang 5 Element Theory(陰陽五行學說), and to be influenced by such medical scholars as Tan Ke(丹溪), Woo Bak(虞搏), and Heo Im(許任).

"IlGumBang" is a medicine book by Kim Hong Je in 1928. It is based on "Dong Eui Bo Gam" but organizes its setup with his own view on medicine. He put importance in supplementing yang in treatment, and this kind of treatment follows the same path of the doctrinal faction of supplementing warmth which focuses on supplementing yang to manage yin. There are many treatment methods in "IlGumBang" and this is a first, in medicine books. There is a distinguishing feature in using prescriptions. Things such as using a lot of 'YukMiJiHwangHwan', modulating prescriptions according to the time and situation, making new prescriptions show his concepts in medicine. It is especially conspicuous that he put 'SukJiHwang' as the main medicine.
