Abstract
This study examined 「Simgwanrok(瀋館錄)」, which contains the works of Lee So-han(李昭漢, 1598~1645), when he was appointed as a Ububingaeg (右副賓客) and served at Simyanggwan(瀋陽館), focusing on the self- healing epic aspect.
 Due to the defeat of the Byeongja Manchu War[丙子胡亂], Joseon's Crown Prince Sohyeon(昭顯), Grand Prince Bongrim(鳳林), and the sons and attendants of high officials were held hostage in Simyang(瀋陽)'s Simyanggwan(瀋陽館), Jiljagwan(質子館), Dongguan(東館), Seoguan(西館), and Bukguan(北館) for about 9 years. Hyeonju(玄洲)'s 「Simgwanrok(瀋館錄)」 contains many works, especially poems written by Prince Bongrim(鳳林), nephew Lee Il-sang(李一相), eldest brother Lee Myeong- han(李明漢), and doctor Chae Deuk-gi(蔡得沂).
 Looking at the self-healing emotional aspect of 「Simgwanrok(瀋館錄)」, first of all, looking at the ‘self-perception of the original and the thoughts of the current couple’, it appears that as a Ububingaeg(右副賓客), he received a great blessing from Crown Prince Sohyeon(昭顯) and Grand Prince Bongrim(鳳林) and seemed to have recovered his normal daily life by reciting poetry. He also tried to overcome the worries of reality by being faithful to his public duties. However, behind the scenes, emotions such as ‘comfort’, ‘contempt’, and ‘hesitation’ are based, so we can see the feelings inherent in the reality that Hyeonju(玄洲) faces.
 Next, looking at ‘the harm of separation and the pain of separation’, Hyeonju(玄洲) expresses the sadness of parting with her nephew and eldest brother, the regret of not being able to meet his close friend, the pain of living in a foreign country, and the regret of parting with people he had shared joys and sorrows with. You can see the emotions. This seems to have played a role in healing and overcoming Hyeonju(玄洲)'s sadness by revealing the self-epic that Hyeonju(玄洲) directly experienced through a concrete epic of the work, acting like ‘catharsis’ or ‘free association’.
 Lastly, if we look at the ‘emotion between suppressed anger and blindness’, Hyeonju(玄洲) revealed his true feelings rather bluntly when he was relatively free from the Qing’s surveillance and censorship. Hyeonju(玄洲) longed for the day when he could take revenge and punish the Qing through young and talented people, or he expressed his disdain for the Qing by viewing it as a ‘Hyungnu(匈奴)’ or ‘Manmaek(蠻貊)’. He also expressed the idea that civilization and barbarism are distinguished depending on the ruling entity in river areas. It is understood that through this, he vented his feelings of hatred and disdain for the Qing Dynasty and released his deep-rooted feelings.
