Understanding Janggi Exile Culture

Janggi exile culture refers to the historical practice in Korea where individuals, often scholars, officials, or political figures, were exiled to remote regions as a form of punishment or political maneuvering. This practice was particularly prevalent during the Joseon Dynasty, a period marked by strict Confucian governance and intricate court politics. Exile served as a method to remove dissenting voices or political rivals without resorting to execution, thus maintaining a semblance of moral governance.

While exile was a punishment, it also became a period of reflection and intellectual growth for many. Exiled individuals often engaged in writing, poetry, and philosophical contemplation, contributing significantly to Korean literature and thought. The rural and isolated places of exile influenced the exiles’ works and perspectives.

The Janggi exile culture highlights the resilience and adaptability of those who lived through it, transforming a period of hardship into one of personal and cultural development. The 2025 Pohang Janggi Exile Culture Festival aims to celebrate this aspect of Korean history, offering visitors a chance to explore the stories, writings, and legacies of those who experienced exile firsthand. Through reenactments, exhibitions, and interactive experiences, the festival showcases the contributions of these historical figures.
