Hi my name is Yu-min Kim. And I will talk about Haetae and who made food in the palace.
First, Haetae is a imaginary animal. And it looks like a lion and has sharp teeth. People believed that the Haetae could tell what is right or wrong so people placed it in front of the main gate of the palace.
Second, in the palace they had special cooks called Jubang sanggung and Daeryeongsuksu. Jubang sanggung lived in the palace and made daily food. But Daeryeongsuksu lived outside of the palace and only came in to make special food, and the royal family's birthday meal. Jubang sanggungs can only be female and Daeryeongsuksus can only be male.
To sum up I thought that the Daeryeongsuksu live a easy life and the Jubang sanggung live a hard life in the Joseon period. Because the Daeryeongsuksu only had to come in to the Palace once in a while. But the Jubang sanggung could not go out of the palace for many years.
Thank you for reading my assay. |
