다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Asan has been one of the regions most neglected from the central government throughout Korean history. This study attempts to provide a model for research on regional studies through literature and folk tales. History of Asan begins with the Bronz Age, although the name begins to appear in earnest in literatures of 13c AD. There are nor sufficient historical data about it. And the available data reflects the views of a central government. Therefore, it is necessary to draw on the folktales handed down by the word of mouth.
Asan region used to be famous for springs, war, and shipping. It has been called Tang Jung, meaning a fountain of bathing since the Shilla dynasty. It was the place that kings of Koryo and Chosun visited for spa baths. It was also a place of battles between Kokuryo dynasty and Backjae dynasty, between Koryo dynasty and later Backjae dynasty. It was a battleground when Mongolian forces invaded Korean peninsula. It even served as a stage for battle between foreign forces such as Clings and Japans in the Ching-japan War.
Since the shipping industry developed in the region, customs warehouses were built in the region. The people in the region were engaged in a variety of productions such as agriculture, fishery, and commerce. They showed a strong unity between themselves. It was proven by the fact that in a battle between Mongolian forces and Asan region, Asan regionals won the victory. However, in the Chosun dynasty, the Maeng Family, the most influential of regional notables, was forced to obey the central government of Chosun Dynasty. And the grassroots of the region were considered trouble-makers.
The following folklores are sprinkled with the names of the places in the region: The hot spring folklore where a crane was said to have found a hot spring; filial son-stone folklore where a son took a good care of his parents even in dire poverty; and a nightingale folklore where a brother and his sister helped each other out. There are folklores that described human activities. One of them encouraged pride in the region by introducing Admiral Lee and Mang Sa Sung. One about Park Moon Soo, Royal Agent, and Lee Hag Bok showed superiority of common people. A folklore about Lee Ji Jam, an official in the region, reveals the wrongdoings of Ajeons, regional officials in an attempt to cause soul searching on the part of Asan residents.
