ABSTRACT

Kim Kidong, 596, lists Jit~tJEWRilc Murung Towon ki (presumably) "Record of the Peach Spring at Wu-ling" as a love story in Korean set in China, existing in paperback edition(s), but not made known before. The title at least must be derived from tJW:WREc T'ao-hua-yi.ian-chi, an allegory written about 400 A.D. by llf5Jm T'ao Ch'ien ( ~i11!l00 T'ao Yuan-ming). It was advertised by Yongch'ang Sogwan before 1945, with the pre-title Iitf#.A 0 Miin, "The Five Beauties"
