Abstract [en]

The poetic genre of naebang kasa, or the "Song of the Inner Chambers" as the term might be translated into English, served as a preferred medium to communicate the voices of Korean elite class women in a male dominated society that put huge restraints on women bereaving them of an active role in public. The paper gives an overview on the basic opinions about the beginnings of the naebang kasa genre and discusses more closely one of its main types, the so-called hwajǒn ka dedicated to spring outings for enjoying flowers. Considering the paucity of sources on pre-modern Korean women, naebang kasa songs are assessed as particularly invaluable documents which call for more intensive and broader research than it has been done in the past.
