영문 초록

Adultery means that married people have sexual relations with the other sex who is not the spouse. But historically the punishment against adultery has been changed because each period has its own ideas of sexuality and marriage. In Koryo every kind of extramarital relationship was called adultery. This means that the extent of control was enlarged and strengthened compared with the ancient kingdom where the sexual relation between singles, or between widows and widowers was not punished. The reason of these changes was the introduction of the Chinese jurisdical system and ruling ideology. The punishment against adultery varied according to the status of those who committed adultery: for example people to people(良人 對 良人), people to lowly people(良人 對 賤人), official to people, master and salve etc. Also the punishment was different by whether it was critical for an adulterous woman to have a husband. But whether an adulterous man had a wife or not did not matter. A sexual relation between master and female slave was not an adultery. Only the adultery existed only in a sexual relation between mistress and male slave. Taking into consideration the above mentioned, the concept of adultery in Koryo was sex descriminatory. The prosecution and punishment against adultery was possible only in the very act of adultery or when the adulterous situation was clear. The procedure of the punishment was very different by the sex. Husband could accuse the adulterous wife. He could kill his wife and adultery. If so, she could be abandoned because it was regarded as the vice. Wives who was furious to their husband's adultery or who wanted to commit adultery had no choice but to kill her husband, to accuse her husband for treason falsely, or to run away. But any of these choices was illegal and should be punished severely. After the punishment, adulterous wives were abondoned and listed in janyuan(姿女安)-a kind of blacklist, becoming a sewing slave. The children of adulterous wives listed in janyuan had limitations to be an official. To sum up, adultery, especially the adulterous wife was punished severely in Koryo. so I would like to argue that Koryo society was not sexually free, which precedent researchers have maintained. It can be concluded that extreme sexual oppression in Chosun had roots in this Koryo society.
