초록

Kim Geon Soon’s baptismal name was Josaphat and he was executed during Shinyu-Saok(1801). He is from Andong Kim’s family. Andong Kim’s was the most prestigious family in the late Joseon dynasty. During Byungja-Horan(1636-1637), Kim Sang Heon and Kim Sang Yong of the Andong Kim family dedicated loyalty to the Joseon Dynasty. Kim Geon Soon was a descendant(Bongsason) of Kim Sang Heon. Andong Kim’s family was Nohron and married a royal family in the 19th century and became maternal relatives. Kim Geon Soon was a Catholic. Kim became a Catholic after taking an interest in Western Studies(Seo-hak), and Andong Kim’s free and diverse traditions were one of the reasons why Kim became a Catholic. Also, Kim was talented and he had the curiosity about various things. He read Catholic books and wrote books from his youth. Kim was baptized by Father Zhou Wen-mo. Although Kim Geon Soon was involved with the “Gang Yee Cheon incident,” but King Jeongjo forgave Kim. Because Kim was a Bongsason of Kim Sang Heon and Andong Kim’s family was loyal to the King. But King Soonjo did not forgive Kim. King Soonjo ascended the throne at the age of 11. Because the king was too young, Queen Jeongsoon conducted Sooryeomcheongjeong. In 1801, the execution of Catholics is Joseon Dynasty occurred, which is called the Shinyu-Saok. The incident killed many Catholics in Joseon. The circumstances changed from the time when it was King Jeongjo due to Sooryeomcheongjeong of Queen Jeongsoon. King Jeongjo cooperated with Si-pa of Nohron and Nam-in, but Queen Jeongsoon was from Byuk-pa of Nohron. So the Queen tried to eliminate those people who were active during Jeongjo’s reign. The Shinyu-Saok was the main incident because many Nam-in were Catholic. Though KimGeonSoon was Nohron he was executed and beheaded. Andong Kim was Si-pa of Nohron. The beheading of KimGeonSoon was too strict because he was the Yangbhan class. Nevertheless, Kim was executed because of Queen Jeongseon's intention to eliminate the Si-pa of Nohron. It was also the Queen's intention to warn the entire family of Andong Kim. In the end, Kim’s death was also influenced by political reason.
