Jangjeolgong Sin Sung-gyeom Spirit-path Stele, Chuncheon

Built in 1805, the fifth year of King Sunjo, the spirit-path stele for Sin Sung-gyeom is housed in a stele pavilion erected to protect it. The stele follows the typical Joseon-period form, made up of an octagonal, roof-shaped capstone, a stele body and a pedestal. The inscription text was composed by Kim Jo-sun, the calligraphy was written by Sin Wi, and the seal-script title was written by Seo Mae-su. Sin Wi was one of the four great calligraphers of the Joseon period, and Seo Mae-su was serving at the time as State Councillor of the Left. The stele body measures 228 cm in height, 106 cm in width and 39 cm in thickness. Located at 821-1 Bangdong-ri, Seo-myeon, Chuncheon, the Sin Sung-gyeom spirit-path stele stands adjacent to the Tomb of Jangjeolgong Sin Sung-gyeom (a Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province Monument, designated 17 June 1967), while nearby in Geumsan-ri stands the Tomb and Gate of Han Baek-rok, Chuncheon (a Gangwon Special Self-Governing Province Heritage Material, designated 18 November 2000).
