Introduction
Introduction by Youngsuk Park
This piece of literature was written in 1758 by Yi Chibaek (李之栢), the nephew of Yu Kyŏng-ha (柳經河), who was the great-grandson of the renowned Confucian scholar Yu Sŏng-ryong (柳成龍, 1542-1607). The date testifies that it was the time when King Yŏngjo's yunŭm, the Prohibition of Wine Drinking (1756) was still widely heard. The king directly warned people that wine drinking was such the insidious evil, as it could bring the whole nation down.[1] Nonetheless wine drinking violation was prevalent at that time and obviously associated with lasciviousness. Drinking, as King Yŏngjo feared, could cause a proud and esteemed scholar to fall into vulgarity. Reflecting the social milieu of the time, this document in a form of legal text is but filled with farcical exaggerations, such as, sixteen-year old[2], the unparalleled beauty on heaven and earth[3], selling a concubine[4], the sickly old man from afar[5], and selling the beauty in a cheap price for a drink. Judged by these unrealistic and contrasting expressions, and notwithstanding the word 一笑 (one laugh) at the end, this text should be classified as a piece of satire rather than a legal document. It is written by the younger scholar who observes the older generation with mockery and sarcasm.

乾隆二十三年戊寅二月十二日幼學金彦猷前明文 右文爲有美一人兮 年方二八 色是傾國 價直千金 雖盡水陸之美 傾天下之羞 不足以稱其人佳麗 病疲遠客 乏錢難辧不時之需 三葉壹蚨 換却少妾 典此沽酒 以助一座之歡 日後如有雜談者 持此文 告官卞正事 酒字非實際語 禁令至嚴 豈有沽酒之事乎 聊所以形容其齊家(務)也 一笑 |
