Have you ever written a travel essay after going on a trip?
This special exhibition on ‘Yeolha-Ilgi, The World With The View of Park Ji Won’ is set up as an experience-oriented exhibition under the theme of Yeolha-Ilgi, the travel essay of Silhak scholar Park Ji-won, who travelled to the Qing Dynasty of China in 1780.

In the past, Korea had a very close relationship with China. The Joseon Dynasty of the 1700s, while Park was living, sent many envoys to the Qing Dynasty. It is said that the envoys of Joseon were able to meet not only the Qing in China, but also people from other countries and experience their customs. However, many intellectuals of Joseon tended to dismiss the Qing Dynasty as the ‘country of barbarians’ during that time, thinking that nothing coming from Qing could equal those in Joseon. However, Park Ji-won claimed that we should look at everything as it is and learn what we need to learn.

Park Ji-won wrote the travel essay ‘Yeolha-Ilgi’ so as to share the things he experienced and appreciated during his trip to the Qing Dynasty with many people, after he returned from the trip. What did Park Ji-won see and how did he feel in the Qing Dynasty? Let’s take a trip to the Qing Dynasty now!
