Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine how the 'Hongryeholgi’ of the Yucheon Lee Man-gyu family was implemented and inherited in Hagye Village. First of all, we looked at the implementation of the ‘Gwallye on the premise of marriage’ before holding a wedding ceremony in Hagye Village and We looked at how the “Hongryeholgi” handed down to Lee Man-gyu family was inherited and implemented in Hagye Village, focusing on “Hyangsanjip”, “Hyangsan Ilgi”, “Yucheonjip”, and documents and oral materials handed down to Lee Man-gyu family.
 Hagye Village is the most typical place where Yi Hwang's descendants have inherited and developed Yi Hwang's studies for 400 years. In <Hongryeholgi>, which is included in 『Dosanjeonseo』, the standing position of a bride and a groom in a wedding ceremony was stated as seoseowi-donghyang’rip (壻西位東向立) and budong’wi-seohyang’rip (婦 東位西向立). Such arrangements indicate seoseo-budong (壻西婦東), where the groom stands to the west and the bride stands to the east.
 These positions differ from the positions of a bride and a groom in dongroe’yeon (seodong-buseo (壻東婦西)) recorded in Garye of Seongri-daejeon.
 From the late 16th century to the early 17th century, the era when Lee Hwang actively developed his scholarship, the social structure was being transformed with the acceptance of Neo-Confucian social customs. In particular, various ceremonies based on Zhu Xi's Garye were quickly being accommodated primarily by aristocrats during this period.
 Lee Hwang informed his son Lee Jun by a letter that his grandson An-do celebrated the coming-of-age ceremony (gwanrye). During this period, Confucian scholars, a s expressed in Zhu Xi's 『Garye』, held a ceremony at the age of 15 to 20, then went to the teacher's school and studied for more than one year, or more than three years on average, and then held a wedding ceremony.
 The customs implemented from the mid-18th century to the early 20th century tend to be reduced to the preparation process for the wedding rather than an independent ceremony. This can be seen as a weakening of the meaning of Gwanrye that had an independent status as 'Gwallye for a position'. According to records and documents, as well as anthologies and oral data, from around 1810 to the 1960s, 12 out of 50 households, 14 generations, raised the ‘Gwallye on the premise of marriage’ in Hagye Village. It can be confirmed that the descendants of Lee Hwang of Hagye Village continued the tradition of betrothal marriage followed by Lee Hwang's grandson Ando until the 1960s.
 The period from Lee Hui-yeon's Gwanrye (estimated in 1810) to Lee Dong-hu's Gwanrye (1962) corresponds to the period from the 19th century to the first half of the 20th century. This period was a time when Confucian traditional society was disbanded along with changes in the status system society during the national hardship of the Japanese colonial period. Despite major changes in modernization, industrialization, and urbanization, it is meaningful that the tradition of “conventional practice on the premise of marriage” has been continued in summer villages.
 According to the narrator's memory, among the 50 generations in Hagye Village, 17 generations had traditional weddings from 1955 to 1962, and among them, 'Hongryeholgi ' 12 times in 7 generations. It is said that the window hall was borrowed from the ‘Hongryeholgi’ owned by the Lee Man-gyu family. The investigation until 1962 is because the traditional wedding ceremony in the village changed to a wedding ceremony in the wedding hall due to the new wedding ceremony that was popular at the time, and the village was disbanded due to the submersion of the Andong Dam in 1976.
 Lee Man-gyu's great-great-grandson, Lee Dong-hu, held gwanrye a month before the wedding ceremony and married Bonghwa Geumjeongja, who lived in Yeongju. On this day, ‘Hongryeholgi’ was used.
