Research on the Chinese language and Chinese language Focusing on “The History of Hwang Saeng”

Chinese novels were developed using a practical prose style in that language. If poetry focuses on expressing emotions, then prose is a practical genre that expresses opinions. Classical novels have progressed from the primary content of the Chinese writing style to the gradual expression of the novel's unique aesthetic characteristics. However, in the late Joseon Dynasty, in the reality of the Northern Expedition and the Great Qing consciousness, the writer's consciousness was revealed through the Uiron script, a Chinese writing style; and Kim Ryu's Chinese literature, <Hwangsaengjeon>, is one of them. In <Hwangsaengjeon>, the main content is a question-and-answer discussion about the Northern Expedition and the Daecheong ritual rather than the general character conflict and narrative. In particular, the detailed and extensive development of knowledge about weapons and military methods represents the author's consciousness of insisting on practical preparations for the the expedition. In addition, a specific methodology is presented for the recovery of the Liaodong Conquest. This appears to be an intention to directly convey the author's views through the character rather than embodying Saeng’s fictional character. In particular, intense discussions were ongoing about the Northern Expedition and the Daecheong rituals that were discussed at the time. Considering that each person had a variety of views, it seems that the process of introduction and persuasion was implemented in the novel.
