조선시대 임금의 여름나기는 평민보다 더 처절했다

Joseon was a time without air conditioners or refrigerators. Yet, in just one ice storage facility along the Han River, a staggering 130,000 blocks of ice were piled up. Now, who owned this ice in the middle of summer? And how did the common people, who had not a single piece of ice, endure that sweltering heat? Although the same heat poured down under the same sky during the summers of Joseon, the methods of escaping that heat differed completely depending on social status and position. · Heatwaves were an administrative issue (The Three Dog Days, suspension of government affairs, concerns regarding prisoners) · The King's ice and summer retreats · The summers of the nobility and the common people · Joseon's ice storage facilities that remain to this day: Seokbinggo (Stone Icehouses) (Gyeongju, Andong, Changnyeong) · Ice collectors and iceworkers on the river in the dead of winter · Traces of a nation that sought to overcome the heat together (King Jeongjo's Cheokseodan) The coolest piece of summer was, in fact, created through the coldest labor of winter. #JoseonSummer #Bingo #Seokbinggo #Ice #JoseonSummerLife #Jehotang #Sambok #Jeongjo #JoseonHistory #KoreanHistory #DailyLifeHistory #Hwachae #Seokbinggo
