According to Ju-Rye(周禮), the Gyeong"gi(京畿) region signifies the hinterland within 500 ri radius of the capital. Gyeong"gi is the closest region to Han yang and was the province subject to the de facto central power of the capital. The taxation policies in this region reflected the characteristics of Gyeong"gi. A close examination of documents inside Buyeok-silchong concerning the Gyeong"gi region reveals that 95% of the tributes from the region were payments to the central financial institution, the Ho-jo ministry, the Seon‘hye-cheong and Gyun’yeok-cheong offices, as well as the central military institutions (such as the Byeong-jo ministry, and military camps including Hullyeon Dogam, Geum‘wi-yeong, Eo’yeong-cheong, Su’eo-cheong, Chong’yung-cheong). Tributes to the central government were mostly made in the form of rice and metallic currency. In similar fashion, certain items repeatedly appeared on the levy list for the central military institutions. Gyeong"gi taxes delivered to the five central military camps were all in the form of rice and metallic currency. Revenues for Hullyeon Dogam, Eo’yeong-cheong, Geum‘wi-yeong and three military camps came in metallic currency. Taxes paid to Su eo-cheong and Chong’yung-cheong from the Gyeong"gi region were in the form of rice. In this way, the capital was able to receive rice and metallic currency from the Gyeong"gi residents under the jurisdiction of five central camps.
A lot of Gyeong"gi residents were obligated to accommodate the passage of ambassadors, to construct and provide labor and finances for royal tombs and manage transportation organization. To alleviate the burden of the Gyeong"gi residents, the central government transferred some finances from the Sam‘nam region to support them. Despite the minor support from other regions, Gwansu-mi from Daedong-mi or sagaek-jigong-mi, sufficient support could not be secured for the finances required by many eups. This was due to its geographical feature as the gateway to the capital and the land site for royal tombs. In the 18th century, with the consolidation of absolute monarchy, funerary rituals and memorial ceremonies became more frequent and ambassadorial visits like Gug’yeok became more sporadic. Therefore, many eups in the Gyeong"gi region were forced to impose taxes and manager revenues in addition to the regulations of the central government. For the Gyeong"gi region which had to provide labor and finances as the capital’s hinterland, additional taxes were inevitable.
