[한국사] 조선에 비가오면 왜 왕까지 굶어야 했을까? | 정사 | 야사

Everyone, the rainy season is humid and unpleasant these days, isn't it? However, if we go back to the Joseon Dynasty 600 years ago, the rainy season was not a matter of discomfort, but a matter of survival. It was a time when mud walls crumbled like tofu, rice could not be cooked due to wet firewood, and centipedes and snakes crawled into the bedding. Wells mixed with sewage water, causing infectious diseases to spread, and if the rice paddies were submerged, people had to starve for the entire winter. It was a desperate month where even the King had to cut back on side dishes and pray to the heavens for the rain to stop. In today's video, we thoroughly explore the true rainy season of Joseon, a reality never depicted in historical dramas. From the horrific scenes recorded in the Annals of the Joseon Dynasty to King Sejong's rain gauge and King Yeongjo's dredging project of Cheonggyecheon Stream, we look back together with the memories of our parents' generation—who, just a few decades ago, stayed up all night collecting rainwater in aluminum pots. We also look back at the memories of our parents' generation. 📚 References Annals of the Joseon Dynasty (Annals of King Sejong, Annals of King Seongjong, Annals of King Sukjong, Annals of King Yeongjo) National Institute of Korean History, Database of Korean History https://db.history.go.kr Academy of Korean Studies, Encyclopedia of Korean Culture https://encykorea.aks.ac.kr Seoul Museum of History, materials related to the Cheonggyecheon stream dredging project 💬 Share your stories.
