Jurisdictional operation of Inspection of Ulrung-do was officially adopted as the governmental policy in 1694 and was stipulated by law in 1697 and 1698. Based upon this policy, the inspection on this island was conducted every three years with Samcheokchumsa and Wolsongmanho in a full charge alternately. But this inspection cycle was reduced to every two years from the late 18th century, and Samcheokchumsas were exclusively dispatched as the inspectors during the time the inspectors were assigned to a special mission of gathering ginseng. This jurisdictional operation of inspection continued until 1984 even though it had not been performed on a strict regular basis. The inspection team consisted of approximately 80 people of diverse fields needed for sailing and inspection operation under the command of the chief inspector. The inspection was normally performed in April and May, the season that the wind was rather mild, and it took from as short as two days to as long as 17 days. After the 19th century, the inspection team departed at the seaport of Gumijin in a fleet of four navy ships rented from Gyngsang-do with 80-suk of rice loaded. The preparation of manpower and material resources needed for this operation became a heavy burden to Yeongdong officials and general people. Villages in Yeongdong were forced to bear food provisions of as much as 80-suk of rice; in addition, they were demanded to provide with materials for ship building or machinery for sailing. What’s more, they took the burden of all the expenses of rooms, meals or receptions incurred from the time inspection team was preparing for depart. During the inspection period, the seaside villages of Yeongdong were also assigned to be on sentry. (KangWon National University/hong619@kangwon.ac.kr)
