South Korea preserves multiple copies of Zhu Xi’s Jeungsonyeossihyangyak(增损 吕氏乡约) dating from the Joseon Dynasty. This community compact was introduced to the Korean Peninsula toward the end of the Goryeo Dynasty. After state-authorities and scholar-officials began to publish, produce eonhae vernacular translations, and revise this community compact during the reign of King Jungjong of Joseon, four categories of community compacts emerged with similarity to the original compact descending from high to low. The textual origins of these community compacts are generally well-documented. They chiefly take the Jujadaejeon(朱子大全) and Sungleetaejeon(性理大全) as their source texts. Revised from these source texts by scholars such as Lee Yi(栗谷李珥, 1536～1584), this community compact gained prestige and influence and became a new source text referenced by other community compacts. Naturally, some community compacts incorporated content from multiple editions, exhibiting the hybrid nature of their textual sources. Using the Jeungsonyeossihyangyak(增损吕氏乡约) as their frame of reference, the various editions of community compacts integrated local-cultural elements and developed into distinctive compacts that reflect the social structure, governance characteristics, and state-society relations of the Joseon Dynasty, exerting a profound influence on the society of the period.
