This paper examined the compilation and publication of Beopgyuyupyeon (法規類編), the official code of the Korean Empire. A comprehensive review of legal books and legal materials compiled during the modern period of Korea was attempted, and a new interpretation of the legal code and legal system of the Korean Empire, called the ‘Korean Empire Legal Code System’ (大韓帝國 法典 體制), was suggested based on it. Beopgyuyupyeon is a major component of ‘Korean Empire Legal Code System’. Also, the compilation and publication process of Beopgyuyupyeon were examined. The Cabinet (內閣) compiled contents of Beopgyuyupyeon focusing on existing laws and statutes published in Gwanbo (Government Gazette), supplemented them through close cooperation with other ministries by exchanging official documents, and promoted planned publication and distribution. This paper is significant in that it is the first study to attempt an examination of Beopgyuyupyeon.
