    For two other memorials by Kim Yuk presented in 1658 that have not been dicussed
    elsewhere in secondary studies, see MHBG [52: 15a-16b. The first objected to the state-
    ment of a previous governor of Cholla that the people were opposed to the law, espe-
    cially when the secret censor for the province had interrogated people in the streets and
    villages and found that they would have welcomed the (({edong surtax even if had been
    as high as fifteen to twenty m({1 (per kyc'il). He also said it was the governor's obligation
    to tell the people that the thirteen mallkyiil rate was not etched in stone and could be
    reduced.
    5 r. Hyojong suggested the thirteen mallkycil rate earlier in the year, in the second lunar
    month. Han Y6ngguk, "Honam," part 1, pp. 39-40; Kim Okkiin, Choson hugi, pp.
    200-201; MHBG 152:14a-b. Three other districts were added to the coastal, rice-pay-
    ing region later on, or thirty of the fifty-three districts in aIL MHBG 152:14a-b.

  6. Of the two versions in the Hycinjong sillok and Revised HWlnjong sWok the for-
    mer is obviously garbled and the latter far more reliable, and Han Y6ngguk has relied on
    it in his article. HWlnjol1g si/lok 3:6a-b, Hyonjong 1.6.kihaek, and HY(lnjong k({esu siZ-

  9. The regulations for the taedong system for that province were promulgated in 1663.
    The law was suspended briefly again between r666 and 1667, but for all practical pur-
    poses it had really begun in 1662. Han YOngguk, "Honam," part I, pp. 44-45; Kim Okkun,

    taedong system in Ch'ungeh'Cmg after 1651 based on the promulgation of the eighty-
    two articles or the law (Hosif taedong samok), in "Hos6," part 2. pp. 77-132. Imple-
