Chinese influence on Korean culture

Korea has been greatly influenced by Chinese culture, borrowing the written language, arts, religions, and models of government administration from China, and, in the process, transforming these borrowed traditions into distinctly Korean forms.[1]

Architecture

Korean wooden-frame architecture was introduced from China during the Han dynasty[2] and has continued to the modern era.[3] Other Chinese concepts to influence Korean architecture include yin and yang, the five elements, Chinese geomancy, Taoism and Confucianism.[4]

Chinese cultural influence around the turn of the common era formed the basis for the early Korean architecture in the Three Kingdoms period.[5] This influence is attributed to Lelang Commandery, a Chinese colony in what is now northwestern Korea, which was founded in 109 BCE.[6] Baekje in particular adopted heavy Sinitic influence.[7]

The broad avenues planned in grid pattern found in the capital of Kyongju was built in an imitation of the capital city of Changan of the Tang dynasty.[2]

Chusimp'o (a type of column-head bracketing[8]:218) is a Korean adaptation of Tang dynasty architecture[9]:37 while the tap'o (a more elaborate system of bracketing) were introduced in Korea from the Tang and Song dynasty respectively.[2]

Later, during the Koryŏ period, further artistic and architectural influences from Song and Liao were absorbed in the peninsula.[10] The wooden building style of this period also seems to have been influenced by that of Fujian in southern China.[11]

Dancheong

Dancheong can be traced back to the late Warring State period (c. 3rd century BC) in China.[12] It is not clear when in history the Korean dancheong first started.[13] The Korean dancheong was imported from China along with Buddhism before being developed and modified to have its own distinctive Korean characteristics.[14][15][16][17] The first Korean dancheong was found on a mural in an ancient tomb built in 357 AD during Goguryeo.[13] Although dancheong can be traced back to China, it has become a distinctive characteristic of the Korean tradition and has a long tradition in Korea.[12]

Fashion and textile

Fashion

Chinese influences can also be found in the clothing style, accessories, and headgears worn in Korea through the import of clothing or through the adoption of certain Chinese culture elements.

Imported clothing or clothing system Influences of certain elements
  • Aengsam
  • Chima: influenced or likely derived from the Tang dynasty Qixiong ruqun;[35][36][37] the high-waisted skirt was introduced in Silla[38][39] and Balhae[40]
  • Closure of jeogori: the change of direction in jeogori closure (i.e. from left to right) is a Chinese influence[41] through the imitation Chinese jackets.[42]
  • Unlined jeonbok: Influenced by a Chinese coat.[43]
Believed to have been derived from Chinese clothing:
  • Dangui.
  • Neoul (originated from Mong-su in Goryeo, which is itself believed to have originated from the Tang dynasty)[44]
Believed to have Chinese influences:
  • Changbaeja : believed to be a Ming dynasty clothing influence,[45]
  • Hwarot[45]

Paintings

Buddhist paintings

The buddhist paintings of Goryeo were heavily influenced by the drawing techniques of the Song dynasty.[46] In the buddhist paintings of Goryeo, the secular and mythical figures were depicted in the form of worshippers or patrons who were in an audience for the sermons of Buddha, who were witnessed of the heavenly realm or who were ritual participants.[8]:192 These figures were possibly the donors of the paintings and were mostly part of the royalty and aristocratic class who are depicted wearing Chinese clothing; their clothing and headgear typically follow the official dress code of the Song dynasty.[8]:192 The Goryeo painting Water-Moon Avalokiteshvara, for example, show the Chinese and Central Asian pictorial influences; however, the textual and pictorial sources used as prototypes for the iconography are primarily Chinese.[47] The clothing worn in the Yuan dynasty however rarely appears in the Buddhist paintings of Goryeo.[8]:192

Landscape paintings

In Goryeo, landscape paintings started to develop through the cultural influence continuum of the Song dynasty, Yuan dynasty, and early Ming dynasty.[49] Early Goryeo landscape painting were strongly influenced by the Northern Song (960 – 1127 AD) Chinese landscape painting.[49] In the later 11th century and in the early 12th century, many Northern Song landscape paintings were introduced in Goryeo.[49] By the first half of the 12th century, Goryeo painters also started to paint landscape paintings scenes which depict actual places in Korea.[49] However, it is unlikely that those Goryeo landscape paintings had any direct relationship on the development of true-view landscape painting which was developed in Joseon as the true-view landscape painting of Joseon was stylistically based on the Southern School of Chinese painting.[49]

True-view landscape paintings

The first true-view landscape painting was created by Chinese painters and appeared in the world art history during the Song dynasty in the 10th century showing the pastoral scenes in Southern China.[50] True-view landscape painting depicting South China scenery then spread to Korea, Vietnam, and Japan.[50] In Korea, true-view landscape paintings was first introduced by diplomatic envoys during the Goryeo in the 13th century and the imported original Chinese paintings were then copied.[50] It is only in the 18th century Joseon that jingyeong sansu (i.e. 'true-view landscape painting') were developed and when Korean painters started to paint their native Korean pastoral scenes instead of copying the South China landscapes which they have never seen.[50]

Tomb paintings

Tomb painting concept found in the Goguryeo and the brick painting found in the late Baekje tombs show Chinese influences.[51]

Sculpture and Ceramics

Pottery

Korea's pottery culture has been influence by China as early as 2000 B.C.[52]

Goryeo Celadon

Vase in the form of a melon, Goryeo celadon, d. 1100. This vase shows the stylistic influence of the Qingbai ware.[53]

Some early Goryeo potters were themselves Chinese.[54] Chinese potters who left their homeland due to political upheaval brought new ceramic technologies and styles to the local Goryeo potters who then managed to make their own Goryeo-style celadon.[55] Goryeo celadon was one of the main types of ceramics produced in Korea during the Goryeo period;[56] it first appeared in Goryeo between the 9th and 10 centuries.[57] The Goryeo celadon was influenced by the ceramic-making skills in Zhejiang Province, China.[57][55] The celadons manufactured in Zhejiang province were known for their best quality since the Tang dynasty.[55] The celadon glaze technology and the kiln structure (i.e. various Chinese kilns were prototypes for Goryeo potters) technology was also adapted from China.[56][55] The Goryeo potters also learnt their technical expertise from the Song dynasty celadon traditions and imitated certain styles from Chinese wares which included the shapes of bottles, bowls and standard decorative motives (e.g. lotus, peonies, flying parrots, and scenes of waterfowl by the pond).[56][55] Goryeo celadons were influenced by Chinese wares and kilns:

  • Yue ware and kilns located in present-day Zhejiang province: decoration motifs on Goryeo celadons were inspired by the decorations found on Yue ware.[55] Long-neck bottles (which were later elongated by Goryeo potters and given more bulging body) have originated from Chinese Yue kiln.[55]
  • Qingbai ware from the Northern Song period from the late 1000s: New shapes of bowls, dishes, cups, vases, bottles were produced under the diplomatic relations between Goryeo and the Northern Song dynasty; the shapes and decorations were then adjusted to reflect the aesthetics taste of Goryeo but some Goryeo celadon shows the influence of the qingbai ware (bluish-white porcelain) which is produced by the Chinese Jingdezhen kilns.[55]
  • Maebyeong (prunus vase; meiping in Chinese): The Goryeo maebyeong shows the integration of Chinese elements by Goryeo potters; the shape of the prunus vase was influenced by the Chinese wares produced by the Ru, Ding, Jingdezhen, Yaozhou, and Cizhou kilns which existed during the Northern Song dynasty.[55]
  • Jingdezhen ware: Having become part of the Yuan dynasty, the goryeo celadon vases adopted the style of the blue-white porcelains which were produced by the Chinese Jingdezhen kilns.[55]

Music and dance

Musical instruments

While a vast majority of Korean musical instruments clearly have some Sinitic ancestry, most of these imported instruments have never been widely used in Korean music, and many are now obsolete.[58] The qin (Korean kŭm), for instance, is almost never played outside of the semi-annual Sacrifice to Confucius (Korean sŏkchŏn).[59] The comparatively popular kayagŭm and kŏmun'go, although they are reputed to have originated in China, have been independent for centuries, and have been modified significantly from the Chinese originals.[59]

Music

Chinese music was introduced in Korea and was performed at the Korean court during the Tang and Song dynasties.[60] The traditional genre of tangak (literally "music of Tang") was imported from China, probably mostly during the Goryeo period.[61] The aak genre, by contrast, was developed in Korea in the fifteenth century based on Chinese written sources from an earlier period, as the style had already fallen out of fashion in China.[62] Examples of tangak include the Nakyangchun (Chinese: 洛阳春; pinyin: Luòyángchūn) and the Boheoja (Chinese: 步虛子; pinyin: bùxūzi) are two Song dynasty ci poetry which were introduced during the Goryeo period and are still being performed in present days Korea.[63] Despite Korean claims to aak retaining its "pure" Chinese form it bears marks of alteration after being imported to Korea.[62]

Writing and literature

The Chinese scholar Jizi is credited by ancient sources with introducing written language to Korea.

The majority of literature produced in the Korean peninsula before the twentieth century was written in Classical Chinese;[64] the reason for this is that the indigenous writing system, hangŭl, only developed relatively late (the fifteenth century) and was not widely accepted as a means of writing intellectual discourse until the late nineteenth century.[64]

Extant Korean poetry in Chinese goes back to the Koguryŏ period.[65] Later, under Unified Silla and Koryŏ, poetic and prose compositions continued to closely follow forms originating in China and characteristic of the Six Dynasties period.[66] The Wen Xuan was extremely influential in China during the Tang Dynasty, and the Korean literati of the period followed suit.[66] Tang poetic principles also appear to have influenced poetic composition the peninsula during the Koryŏ period.[66]

Several important poets of the ninth and tenth centuries, including Ch'oe Ch'i-wŏn (born 857) and Ch'oe Sŭng-no (927–989) studied in China.[67]

All scriptural and commentarial writings composed by pre-modern Korean Buddhists were written in literary Chinese (Korean hanmun).[68]

Scholarship

The historian Gim Busik (1075–1151), a Confucian,[69] adopted the historiographic style of Sima Qian in compiling his Samguk Sagi.[70]

Religion and philosophy

To ignore the greater northeast Asian context in discussing Korean Buddhism is to distort Korean Buddhism.[71] Buddhism was introduced to Korea in the fourth century, during the Three Kingdoms period.[72] The Samguk sagi records that Buddhism was first introduced to Koguryŏ around 372 by the monk Sundo/Shundao, who was summoned to the Chinese state of Former Qin by its king Fujian,[72] and that the Indian monk Mālānanda brought Buddhism from the Eastern Jin to Paekche around 384.[69]

All schools of Korean Buddhism have their roots in earlier Chinese innovations, in both doctrine and soteriology.[71] While Korean monks training in China often played a critical part in some of these developments,[71][note 1] China's size and its geographical position on the Silk Road (which gave it stronger ties to the older Buddhist traditions of India and Central Asia) allowed it to pioneer the majority of trends in East Asian Buddhism.[71]

The monk Wŏnch'ŭk studied in China under Xuanzang and developed his interpretation of Yogācāra Buddhism derived from Xuanzang's New Yogācāra.[73] Sŏn Buddhism, a Korean form of Chan Buddhism, began with the seventh century Silla monk Pŏmnang, who studied in China with the Fourth Patriarch of Chan Buddhism, Daoxin.[73] Sŏn monks followed Pŏmnang's example studying this new form of Buddhism in China for the next century and a half,[73] and most of the founders of Nine Mountains school of Sŏn traced their lineage to Mazu Daoyi of the Hongzu sect.[73] Two other examples of Korean sects with Chinese roots were Ch'ŏnt'ae, founded by Ŭich'ŏn based on the Chinese Tiantai,[74] and Hwaŏm (Ch. Huayan.[75] Though Ŭich'ŏn only established Ch'ŏnt'ae as a separate school of Korean Buddhism in the eleventh century, Korean Buddhists had been studying Chinese Tiantai as early as the seventh century.[76]

The eleventh-century Korean Tripiṭaka that would later become a reference point for the twentieth-century Japanese Taishō Tripiṭaka were based on the Chinese Buddhist Tripiṭaka completed in the tenth century.[74]

Law and government

Pre-modern Korea's dynastic governmental systems were significantly indebted to China.[77]

Starting in the Three Kingdoms period, Korean government officials were trained with a Chinese-style Confucian examination system.[78] This examination system continued into the Chosŏn period, but unlike in China the examination was only open to members of the aristocratic upper class.[79]

The national flag of South Korea is derived from the Chinese philosophy yin-yang and the Chinese divination text I Ching.[80]

Names

Korean surnames use Chinese characters. Typically, Korean names use one character for the family name and two for the given name, in close resemblance to Chinese names.[81]

  1. Buswell (2010 : 44–46) emphasizes the mutual interchange of influence between Chinese Buddhism and the traditions of other "peripheral" regions such as Korea, Japan, Vietnam and Tibet.
