Abstract

Bodeokgong Bimangnok is a miscellaneous manuscript, which includes both Hanja and Hangul texts and was written by Park Kwangseon (1569~1631) of Goryeong from 1605 to 1623. This study focuses on the texts written in Hangul to examine what they can tell us about the history of the Korean language. A particularly noteworthy feature of this manuscript is that it contains the first hypercorrected form ‘김채’ (kimchi) instead of ‘짐채’. While the manuscript does not contain as many Hangul texts as it does in Classical Chinese, the notation and phonological characteristics it reveals do reflect the language of the 17th-century Gyeongsang-do province and thus provide invaluable insights into the history of the Korean language, especially when compared with Hyeonpungkwakssieongan, a contemporary manuscript from a neighboring region.
