- Abstract
- In early Joseon they had a New year and the Winter Solstice’s feast with Confucian Style. The feast was called Jeong Ji Hoe-rye(正至會禮), Jeong means a New Year’s Day, Ji means The winter Solstice and Hoe-rye is the great feast for king and all kind of officers.
The revision of the protocol for the feast reflected the result from the 100year’s long efforts to make the confucian style rites for the court rituals since founding the dynasty. The feast consists of two main procedures, the first is to toast to king’s longevity and the second is for all participants to drink nine times turn. In the toating procedure the Crown Prince devotes the first cup to the king and the prime minister the second. After that procedure all participants move to the places for drinking and have drinking procedure in song and dance performances.
King was the center of the world like the North Star in the space and organizer in the feast. In Johoe(朝會, court conference) all participants were organized in single oder according to the office ranks from first to nine. In contrast the feast participants were placed in a complex order. The kindred of the king(宗親) was located in the closer place to the king comparing to ordinary officers located in the yard. The king’s literary officers(侍臣) were privileged locating in the stairs. On the other hand, the places for foreigners were prepared the outmost points near the gate.
The purpose of the feast, formally, is for the king and his officers to enjoy together. The closer places to the king show their superior position to others’ so the feast had a role to show the difference between participants and the principle that king was the single core in the rank system.
