Abstract

This study aims to analyze how the space of the Joseon Dynasty changed into a modern urban space targeting the Cheongju-myeon area, which was reorganized in 1914. The data used for this analysis are cadastral maps and land registers written in 1912. Through this, it was analyzed how the land in Cheongju-myeon was used and how the landowner owned the land in Cheongju-myeon. In 1912, the land of Cheongju-myeon was used as a national land, rice paddies, fields, hybrid land, and sasa land. Among them, the land was used the most, and the rice paddies are distributed in the southeast of Myeon centered on Munoe-ri, and the fields are used mainly on the embankment of Musimcheon Stream in the southwest of Myeon. The land in Cheongju-myeon is owned by state-owned land, Koreans, Japanese, companies, and religious organizations. The state-owned land is mainly owned within Cheongju-eupseong Fortress, and the Japanese mainly own it inside Cheongju-eupseong Fortress and outside the south gate. The modern urban space of Cheongju-myeon is progressing in the south direction around Cheongju Eupseong Fortress, and the existing rice paddies and fields are actively used as land and roads.
