Jongmyo information Jongmyo is the tomb of kings with long reigns. It was originally built to house the tombs of the five kings including Taejo, his father and grandfather. A total of 19 chambers enshrine the spirit tablets of the kings and queens of the Joseon Dynasty. Kings with short reigns are enshrined in separate places. Jongmyo, where the ancestral tablets of the kings are enshrined and ancestral rites are performed, was an extremely important place in the history of Joseon. When a new king ascended to the throne, he first went to Jongmyo and Sajik to bow and perform ancestral rites. Jongmyo has a simple structure with long, connected rooms, creating a grand and solemn beauty. The ancestral rite held here, Jongmyo Daeje (宗廟大祭), was a national event that had been held since the Three Kingdoms period and was the basis of the national ruling order. Jongmyo Jerye was designated as Important Intangible Cultural Property No. 56 in 1975, and UNESCO designated Jongmyo as a World Cultural Heritage in 1995. If the architecture of the palace is splendid, Jongmyo is quiet and elegant. In particular, the architectural beauty of the gable roof boasts outstanding traditional Korean architectural techniques. Jongmyo consists of Jeongjeon, where ancestral tablets are enshrined and ancestral rites are performed, Yeongnyeongjeon, which contains the meaning of long-term peace for the ancestors and descendants, Jeonsacheong, Eosuksil, Hyangdaecheong, and Shindang. It is seen as a time to honor and remember ancestors by offering food with courtesy to ancestors, and a time for families and descendants to learn, The essential meaning of courtesy is to distinguish between the superior and inferior, the noble and the humble, the high and the low, the old and the young, and so on. When these distinctions become clear, each will be respected and harmony can be achieved. Specifically, it is said that respect follows only after the distinction between the monarch and the subject, parents and children, siblings, and men and women, and when this distinction order is in harmony, the world will be peaceful. For this reason, in ancient society, courtesy was considered the foundation of politics. There were times when etiquette and law were in conflict with each other, but as Confucianism emerged in earnest, the idea of etiquette became established as an absolute means of governance. The practical act of this etiquette is the ancestral rite. Jongmyo Jerye, National Intangible Cultural Heritage Jongmyo Daeje is a ritual performed at Jongmyo, the national shrine of Joseon and a World Heritage site, to honor the spirit tablets of the kings and queens of the Joseon Dynasty. It is also called Jongmyo Daeje because it is the largest and most important of all ceremonies. Jongmyo Daeje was performed five times a year, in spring, summer, fall, winter, and on the last day of the lunar calendar, but it is currently performed on the first Sunday of May and the first Saturday of November. Jongmyo Daeje is a comprehensive ritual that is rare in the world, where one can appreciate not only the ancestral rite but also tangible and intangible world heritages such as ritual music and dance.
