Fatigue and life of the personal servants in Chosǒn Dynasty is not likely well known as much as being expected, because the most of stories on them had been told without grounding on contemporary accounts. From this point of view, 『Shwaemirok』written by Oh Hee-Mun is very significant source material which makes possible to understand what was fatigue of the personal servants, how much it was big burden to them, how much they made efforts to get away from it, and what was owners concern on them. So this article made an attempt to understand those subjects, dividing into two categories: fatigue and private life of the personal servants. The most typical labor of servants was to cook food and to prepare firewood. As long as a noble man did not possess servants who would accomplish those works, he should survive by himself and sleep in a cold bedroom. Basically servants had their works in bring water from fountain, cooking food, and preparing firewood, although sometimes they went out of home. Besides the domestic fatigue, servants went on errant for delivering message, and accompanied with their lords. In the age when there was no any communication system to correspond and any effective transportation to go long distance, servants played a role as corresponding communications and transportations. Because the noble could not go out long distance without horse or donkey, servants always led those animal and their lords on horseback. Servants took the responsibility of Farming the lord's land and commercial activities for the lord on themselves. If they showed laziness, and did not work at their best in the busy farming season, they were whipped with leash. Due to this cruel treatment, they constantly attempted to get away from fatigue for the lords. When they ran away from the houses of the lords, the owners of servants chased the fled servants by help of civil office. The arrested servants were punished harshly. Servants could not keep marriage stable because of various causes. Nevertheless, they were free to remarry. When they have free time from fatigue for the lords, they worked for their lives. Female servants engaged in rearing silkworm and weaving. Male servants rented a patch of land as tenants, and sometimes endeavored to do commercial activity for their economic prosper. They used to weave cloth at night long with exhausted body. Sometimes it caused fire to break out, and burnt the house where they lived. A certain servant leased the land which he rented. But he was to be scolded by his lord for the behavior. Moreover he was often concerned to do his own work rather than that of the lord, risking to be beaten by his lord. In the long run, the self-management works of servants performed before the Japanese-Korean war of 1592. But after the war these were extended overall in Chosǒn Dynasty. It was one of the reasons that improved the economic life of servants.
