This study examines Japanese Licensed prostitution the factors divided into two categories in early morden and modern Japan and as a new keyword for overcoming thehistorical limits and problems, tries to reconsidered Yujohyoban-ki. The purpose was to try to utilize it in cultural history. The Yujohyoban-ki is a practical book that inevitably appeared with the establishment of the Japan brothel system, and has survived with thesystem. The Yujohyoban-ki records the aspects of prostitution, which is the core of Japan’s prostitution system, in various forms, so far it wasn’t attracted much attention until now, even though it is a starting point for elucidating Japan’s Japanese Licensed prostitution system. It was nat determined that the cause was the fallacy of the history of literary research that set the ended of the Yujohyoban-ki in the middle of the 18th century. As a result of the research, first, it was confirmed that the Yujohyoban-ki was continuously written and published during the period when the Japanese brothel system was implemented. Secondly, from the original function and format of the Yujohyoban-ki, it was found that it was in reality show the reputation and the situation of the prostitute for the existing prostitute. Thirdly, we were able to confirm the customs and customs of the brothel provided by the prostitute reputation, and the appearance of the sex sales of transactions between the prostitute and the passenger from the price and the actual content. From the above, the record of the Yujohyoban-ki provides the basis for exploring the structure of the Japanes Licensed prostitution system and its management system, and the sexual culture that forms the core of the Japanese brothel system, and by extension, entertainment. It seems to have historical significance in research to elucidate culture in general.
