Abstract

The aim of this research is to understand the dance culture in the government office space of the Joseon Dynasty (1392 ~ 1910). The objects of the analysis are 32 pictures of dancing in local government office space. Iconography and literature research are used as basic research methods, and comparative study is used as well. Chronologically, pictures of dancing in local government space appeared from 1580 to 1796, geographically from Pyeongando to Jeju Island. Most of the dance genres shown in the pictures were jeongjae. The performers in the pictures of dancing included female dancing entertainers called as ginyeo, boy dancers called as mudong, cheoyong dancers, and clowns also. Furthermore, the pictures revealed that a government officer and old men invited at the banquet danced together in the local government office space. This was because dancing was recognized as something wonderful that only a peaceful time allowed. In the Joseon Dynasty, the government office space was the place where people could enjoy dancing.
