An advanced central governing system centered around the king was established during the Chos?n dynasty to control the entire nation. However, a closer look at the system reveals that Chos?n was based on a hierarchical bureaucratic system which had the king at the top, followed by high and mid-level bureaucrats and then middle class individuals such as technicians, s?ri and hyangni (clerks). Many historical sources can be found which detail how rights and interests were distributed among the various members of the bureaucracy. The rights and interests of those who were responsible for the management of the nation were distributed in accordance with their political and social status. The distribution of rights and interests in such a manner was regarded as being a well-balanced system. Therefore, the people of Chos?n did not perceive the corruption committed by members of the bureaucracy as being completely wrong, but as something that was to some degree natural.
The notion of vested bureaucratic rights and interests was based on the absolute monarchial system established at the beginning of the dynasty. However, as the royal power began to weaken from the 16th century onwards, a new notion of those who should enjoy various rights and interests took root in which one had to belong not only to a privileged social class but hold an official government position. As a result, the yangban emerged as a privileged class during the 17th century.
While these changes were proceding, the kwaj?n (科田, rank land) system, under which members of the bureaucracy were granted an amount of land that reflected their official rank, was first changed to the chikch?n (職田, official land) system and then eventually abolished. The amount of nokbong (祿俸, officials salary) was also gradually decreased and in essence existed in name only. Although membership in the bureaucracy was the only way for clans to preserve their social status, it became natural for members of the bureaucracy to use their status within the bureaucratic structure to safeguard their own rights and interests, given that the previous rewards for serving as a government official had all but disappeared. When such practices first emerged, the Samsa (三司, Financial Commission) enjoyed a certain degree of autonomy when it came to its function of controlling corruption, However, from the 18th century onwards, the Samsa could no longer be counted on to control these corrupt practices.
This study analyzed the Chos?n bureaucracy from the standpoint of the publics consciousness of corruption. The researcher's findings with regards to the characteristics of corruption within the management of bureaucratic institutions were different from those found in previous studies. These findings can be summarized as follows: Chos?n was a kingdom which was based on agriculture, and in which agricultural products represented the main financial resource. The tools with which to redistribute state wealth, which was amassed from these agricultural products, had as their primary function the preservation of the royal family. In addition, within the niche in which these redistribution tools functioned, members of the bureaucracy, as well as the s?ri and hyangni class, were allowed to secure the resources they needed to ensure the continuation of their lifestyle. The degree of the rights and interests which each member of the bureaucracy enjoyed was heavily dependent on his social status and official rank. In conclusion, the central governing system of Choson was premised on the continuation of the feudal system.
