Who is Ahn Yong-Bok?


Yi Ik, a great Choseon Dynasty scholar of the 17th century, who lived in similar times as Sir Ahn Yong-Bok, in his book Seongho Saseol (= My Analecta of Miscellaneous Works) said Sir Ahn Yong-Bok was an oarsman of the navy battleship, was fluent in Japanese language because he frequented Japanese Mission in Busan, and was a lowly soldier when he went to Japan for the Ulleungdo matter.
In those days, oarsmen who rowed on a battleship were usually of low social status. Perhaps, Sir Ahn Yong-Bok was close to being the man-slave of the government. The first time he went to Japan, he had been carrying an identity tag, saying “the owner is Oh Chung-Chu who lives in Hanyang”. That tells us that he was still of a status close to a slave when he went to Japan.
Further, that he was an oarsman means that he was big and strong, and had a muscular body. In Korea, almost every family name can be retraced back to its original ancestor and tell the distance of blood relationship among the same family name. So an Ahn clan, precisely saying, the “Sunheung” Ahn subclan considers Sir Ahn Yong-Bok as one of its members, and the subclan imagines that Sir Ahn Yong-Bok had a dark skin and traces of smallpox on his face based on his name tag, and so naturally an image of big and strong man comes into our minds.
Concerning the birth year of Sir Ahn Yong-Bok, there are three theories of 1651, 1654 and 1657. Among them the “Sunheung” Ahn subclan seems to lean towards 1657. Regarding Sir Ahn Yong-Bok’s family, in Choseon Wangjo Sillok (= Annals of the Choseon Dynasty), it is recorded that “Ahn Yong-Bok went to Ulsan to see his mother” while he was preparing to go to Japan for the second time in 1696, so we can assume that he had a mother and was alive, but there are no records written about his father or siblings. Ahn Yong-Bok Memorial Association claims that he had a wife named Yuyu. Regarding Sir Ahn Yong-Bok’s address or his main acting stage, many scriptures say that he was a ‘Dongnae citizen’, and in addition, his identity tag is written as “No. 13, Jwacheon 1 road, Busan ...”, so we can conclude that his main stage was Dongnae, Busan, and Ulsan.

번역자 방기혁(房奇爀)씨는 아마추어 한문학자, 동아시아 기마민족 역사 연구자이다. 그는 1950년대 출생의 은퇴세대로 정년퇴직 후 새로이 전자출판업에 뛰어들어 <슬기야단비야>라는 출판사를 창업하였다. 번역자는 이 전자출판사를 통해 자신이 작업해 온 원사(元史), 금사(金史), 요사(遼史) 번역물을 출판하였고, 안용복 선생의 활약을 다룬 <울릉도？독도 사수실록>, 임진왜란을 다룬 <일본과 임진왜란>이란 책도 출판하였다.
번역자에게 이 책을 번역하면서 제일 힘든 부분은 비(非)한문식 인명과 지명이었다. 김호동 교수의 <부족지>와 <징기스칸기>, 박원길 교수의 <몽골 고대사 연구>, 유원수 교수의 <몽골비사>, Paul Buell의 가 많은 도움을 주었지만, 그럼에도 번역하기 힘든 인명과 지명이 상당히 많았다.
이에 번역자는 인명과 지명을 한자 그대로 컴퓨터에 넣어 검색기능을 통해 동일인인지 아닌지를 비교하여, 동일인이라 생각되면 동일인으로 처리하고 다른 사람이라 생각되면 다른 사람으로 처리하였기, 그 수많은 인명과 지명이 제대로 번역된 것인지에 대해서는 솔직히 자신이 없어 후학들의 연구에 의존하고자 한다.
사실 번역자의 애로는 비(非)한문식 인명과 지명에 그치는 것이 아니었다. 한문이 모자라고 역사지식도 짧으며 선학(先學)의 연구도 부족한 상태였기, 여러 곳에서 미흡하고 심지어는 중대한 오류도 있을 것이지만, 하여튼 세계 최초의 시도라는 성취감에서 일단은 출판하여 전문가와 독자분들의 조언과 비평을 받기로 하였다. 학계와 독자분들의 깊은 이해를 바란다.
