Abstract

Recognizing the problem that the definition of the term pan-ock does not appear precisely in the dictionary, the definition of pan-ock was established through analysis by analyzing 183 cases of pan-ock searched in the Korean Classics DB and classifying them into buildings and ships. First of all, the 65 pan-ocks classified as architecture were used in various ways, such as residences, religious facilities, jang-pan-ocks, and prisons, depending on their use. Second, the 90 cases of pan-ock related to ships were the concept of houses that combine work and accommodation on ships. Finally, through military installations, literary expressions, and bureaucrats who have seen trains and wagons, Pan-ock uses boards. It can be used for walls or roofs only, or for both walls and roofs. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the case of the Joseon Dynasty with the definition of Pan-ock in the existing dictionary. In other words, Pan-ock refers to “houses, religious facilities, royal tombs, and prisons, with various uses and forms. In addition, it refers to the joining of only the wall or the roof with planks, or the joining of both the wall and the roof,” suggesting a broader interpretation of the category.
