초록

The purpose of this study was to understand the placeness of west area of Gyeongbok Palace(景福宮) in early Joseon Dynasty(朝鮮時代) and assume the birthplace of King Sejong(世宗) who was the first king born in Hanyang(漢陽).
The west area of Gyeongbok Palace(景福宮) belonged to the northern side(北部) of the administrative district, but area below the boundary of Pilwoondae(弼雲臺) belonged to the western side(西部). Since it was located on the west side of the capital city and major functions including palace were mainly concentrated in the north side, I guess it might be recognized as the west village(西村). Besides, the area located upstream which started Baekwoondong stream(白雲洞川) and Okryudong stream(玉流洞川) based on Cheonggye stream(淸溪川) which was the main stream in the capital city in Joseon Dynasty(朝鮮時代) was called Wudae and the area located downstream between East Great Gate(東大門) and Gwanghee Gate(光熙門) was called Araedae. In addition, since the area located upstream where many families in power at the time lived, it was called Bukri(北里).
The reason why the area was called by multiple names was that the placeness located on the west side of Gyeongbok Palace(景福宮), streams within the capital city and geographical factor based on Pilwoondae(弼雲臺) were considered. Recent confusion of the term referring to this area is caused by these factors and no consideration of aspects based on historical and geographical variations.
In addition, the symbolic landscape element in the west side of Gyeongbok Palace(景福宮) includes Inwang Mountain(仁王山). Inwang Mountain(仁王山) had been recognized as the place which had the important placeness. For example, it was mentioned as the candidate for transfer of the capital in the discussion of position of capital in Joseon Dynasty(朝鮮時代). Due to this placeness, this area was eventually selected as residence and scenic spot for powerful toads upon transfer of the capital and it was a cause to locate residences, pavilions and villas. In addition, due to the placeness adjacent to Gyeongbok Palace(景福宮), there were several governmental offices associated with Palace and residences for employees who worked. Accordingly, it has been considered that the west area of Gyeongbok Palace(景福宮) in early Joseon Dynasty(朝鮮時代) was not the place of residences for the public but the place associated with Gyeongbok Palace(景福宮) and the place for the power class.
Meanwhile, since there were almost no materials about the birth place for King Sejong(世宗) except King Sejong Chronicle(世宗實錄) saying that he was born in the private house in Joonsubang(俊秀坊潛邸) and many visual materials such as maps were made after the 18th century, accurate historical investigation has the limitation. However, if you review there relative materials, the private house in Joonsubang(俊秀坊潛邸) was located between Baekwoondong stream(白雲洞川) and Okryudong stream(玉流洞川) and the north side was adjacent to Jasu Palace(慈壽宮) which was the residence of Muangun-BangBeon(撫安君芳蕃). It was likely that the south side was close to Indeok Palace(仁德宮) of King Jeongjong(定宗) and was relatively close to Youngchu Gate(迎秋門) of Gyeongbok Palace(景福宮). Because the birthplace for King Sejong(世宗) was the private house for King Taejong(太宗), private house in Joonsubang(俊秀坊潛邸) was called Bon-Gung of Jangeuidong(藏義洞本宮). Furthermore, since Joonsubang(俊秀坊) and Younggeonbang(永堅坊) were adjacent to each other, it seemed to be called Bon-Gung of Younggyeonbang(永堅坊本宮).
In terms of realms of the birthplace of King Sejong(世宗), it must be a large area with a consideration of the site of house for royal families and power class in Joseon Dynasty(朝鮮時代). Moreover, the time when King Sejong(世宗) was born was just before royal prince’s war occurred. Therefore, since King Taejong(太宗) must have large group of private soldiers, a huge space should be prepared in private house. Therefore, the existing birthplace for King Sejong(世宗) which was assumed to be a small area should be corrected in a wider area. It was assumed that the location and scope could be current Tongin-dong(通仁洞) and its neighboring area.
