King s Learning reflected in the education of the Crown Prince of Sunam Ahn Jung-bok and Damheon Hong Dae-yong

The purpose of this study is to examine the disciplines of kingship of Sungam An Jeong-bok and Damheon Hong, Dae-yong reflected in prince education. They are Silhak scholars representing Namin-line and Noron-line participated in Seoyeon for King Jeongjo, who was a Crown Prince at that time, as a royal guard at the end of the reign of King Yeongjo. Seyeon is the place where lectures on Confucian classics and histories were provided to Crown Prince. Generally, the discipline of kingship refers to education at the forum where the king and courtiers studied and discussed but Seoyeon can be viewed in line with the discipline of kingship as it is education for Crown Prince. Although they belonged to different schools, they were critical of ideological debate such as ‘Four-Seven debate’ and pursued Silhak (practical learning) even though they took different approach. The Prince Crown showed interest in the culture of Qing Dynasty after obtaining information on book stores, commerce and institutions of Beijing from Hong Dae-yong. Such interest of King Jeongjo led to policies that adopt the culture of Qing Dynasty actively through Gyujanggak, the royal library of the Joseon Dynasty. At that time there was a theory of expedition to conquer the north, which hindered the development of Joseon Dynasty, based on obsession with impossible causes. But Bukhak theory (thought in introducing advanced science, technology, and economic institution of Qing China) of King Jeongjo led to changes in Joseon Dynasty. King Jeongjo, who was interested in active commercial activities of Beijing, abolished the grants of monopoly privileges and promoted commercial reform liberalization policy, driving the development commerce and industry in the late Joseon Dynasty period.
