  • The purpose of this study is to estimate the location and space configuration of Sauidang(四宜堂), which is a house in the late Joseon period. Sauidang was built by Hong Man-hoe(洪萬恢), the last son of Princess Jeongmyeong(貞明公主), was used as a house for Pungsan Hong clan(豊山 洪氏) for approximately 150 years, and is now defunct. However, the existence was estimated through Sauidang-ji("四宜堂志") compiled by Gwan-am Hong Gyeong-mo(冠巖 洪敬謨) in 1824. Based on the mention that "Sauidang was located in Hundo-bang(薰陶坊) of Ihyeon-dong(梨峴洞)" and the literature referring to "the site of Myeongryegung Palace(明禮宮)", this study estimated the location of Sauidang. Maps and photographic data in the modern age enabled us to examine the utilization cases of medium- and large-sized lots by examining the correlation with the current Embassy of the People's Republic of China in the Republic of Korea. In addition, it was possible to estimate the spatial configuration of Sauidang with a focus on words to clarify the detailed explanation of Sauidang mentioned in the literature and spatial relationship.

  • By studying 'Sauidangzi' written by Honggyungmo(1774~1851), this paper shows on the location, the space organization, and the landscape culture of 'Sauidang' which was upper class's house in late period of the Joseon. Sauidang was the residence of about 530 kan(about $1,750m^2$) which was given to Jeongmyunggongju(daughter of Sunzo) by Injo when she married with Hongjuwon, located at the good place where Mt. Mokmyuk, Mt. Dobong, Mt. Inwang, and Janwon peak are harmonized all together. The residence was on the foothill of Mt. Mokmyuk, facing to the northeast. The main house was facing to the east with the inner and back yards, and the separate house(Sauidang) was facing to the west with the garden, and a vegetable field was set in the outer yard where is connected with a main road where willow trees were lined up, 'Sauidang' was called as "the garden of princess", and a stair-shaped flower garden was made to the south, and one could look down the Hanyang castle as a whole. In the garden, there were trees and house plants enriching one's mind to wish an eternal life with oddly shaped stones or flowers, and symbolizing a fairly land. There were 38 types of trees that were planted either on the ground or in pots as various bundles like 1 tree, 2 trees, 3 trees, 4 trees, 5 trees, 8 trees, and 9 trees. Taehosuk, oddly shaped stones, stone panels, stone pillars, jade panels, sundial, walls and fences, stone stairs, steppingstones, and buildings were set for the landscape. Also, the residence had rare luxuries of landscaping culture like Wangheeji's Nanjungsoogyeseo, Sosik's Cheeongjeongi, Jomangboo's Jeokbyukboo, and Anpyungdaegoon's Behaedangcheop.
