This paper will focus on the narrating ways of Chongbirok(淸脾錄) within the description of Chinese classical poetry written by Japanese. The writer, Lee Deok-Mu(李德懋). made Won Jung-Geo(元重擧) and Sung Dae-Jung(成大中) get interested in Japan. They met many japanese writers during the Kyemi mission trip(癸未使行) to Japan. After they returned to Korea, they made opportunities to have conversation with japanese by writing and painting. Basically, Korean writers were not very interested in Chinese poems written by Japanese because they believed Japanese academic level was much lower at that time. However Korean writers actually did not know much about Chinese poetry written by Japanese since they did not have enough chances to look at actual works. Therefore, Lee Deok-Mu decided to show Japanese literature as objectively as possible. Chongbirok(淸脾錄) uses four narrative styles, Byeonjung(辨訂), Sohae(疏解), Pumpyeong(品評), and Gisa(記事). Lee Deok-Mu did not criticize literary aspects of Chinese poetry of Japanese in this book. Instead he didn't only used Sohae(疏解) and Gisa(記事) but also used Byeonjung(辨訂) to show individual details of poets and prove the origin of each work. He thought this form would be an effective way to let people know Japanese literature. Moreover, he advised readers to get a negative point of view on those works to understand them deeply.
