황패강 국어국문학회 2004 국어국문학 Vol.- No.138
The articles on three generations of Dan-Kun (Hwan-In, Hwan-Ung, Dan-Kun) were recorded in 'SamGukYuSa(三國遺事)', 'JeWangUnGi(帝王韻記)', 'SeJong SilLokJiRiJi(世宗實錄地理地)', and etc. In this paper, 'SamGukYuSaKoGi(三國遺事 古記)' is referred as a primary source whereas the rests are considered as subsidiary references. Even though the history of Dan-Kun(檀君) has been investigated for years, the references mentioned above describe the prehistoric story of the universe and human in a form of mythology. This issue necessitates the mythological interpretations of the references rather than historical interpretations. Accordingly, mythological interpretation of three generations of Dan-Kun(檀君) is summarized as follows. First generation: Hwan-In::: According to 'KoGi(古記)', 'Hwan-In(桓因)' is described as 'Je-Suk(帝釋)' - which is same as an old Indian god - who lived in a heaven called 'Do-Ri-Chun' on top of 'Su-Mi(須彌)' mountain, and controlled thirty three heavens. However, 'Je-Suk(帝釋)' is a figure adopted from Buddism, which corresponds to 'Hwan-In(桓因)', considering its functionality and characteristics. It is called 'Sang-Je-Hwan-In(上帝桓因)' in JeWangUnGi (帝王韻記). Traditionally, in Korean and Chinese culture, the supreme god who dominates universe has been named as 'Ok-Hwang(玉皇)', 'Chun-Je(天帝)', and 'Sang-Je(上帝)' whose shapes and individuality are not supposed to be described. Basically, He does not move around or vacate his position at the center of universe. Hwan-In(桓因) is the supreme god as such. Second generation: 'Hwan-Ung(桓雄)'::: As an illegitimate son of 'Hwan-In (桓因)', he was concerned with mankinds ('Sag-Ui-Chun-Ha 數意天下') and devoted himself to save them ('Tam-Gu-In-Se 貪求人世'), which was noticed by 'Hwan-In'. Having three 'Chun-Bu-In(天符印)' provided by 'Hwan-In', he led three thousand people and descended from heaven to 'Sin-Dan-Su(神壇樹)' on top of 'Tae-Baek(太伯)' mountain. He commanded 'Pung-Baek(風伯)', 'Woo-Sa(雨師)', and 'Woon-Sa(雲師)' who are in charge of agriculture. He controlled crops, life and death, illness, punishment, and good and evil to establish fundamental systems of human society. Also, he managed 360 kinds of human business. Considering these fact, even though he was a god, he shares the similarity of mythological (or cultural) anti-god heroes who positioned himself from divine side to human side, and served for human beings. His admiration of divine world may be related to his status as an illegitimate son. Since he obtained the permission from his father 'Hwan-In(桓因)' and followed his order to descend from heaven, he has to be differentiated from other ethnic-mythological divine heroes who were expelled from divine society as a punishment or who escaped to human world for his faulty behavior. Third generation: Dan-Kun(檀君)::: His final grand mission was to deliver Dan-Kun(檀君), - a demigod and culture hero - who brought civilization and orders to human beings. Hereby, he performed the first marriage of mankind and delivered the forefather of human beings. The mythology of three generations of Dan-Kun(檀君) represents the fate of a human who departed from paradise symbolized as heaven. Hwan-Ung(桓雄) is similar to Adam and Eve as a symbol of original human beings who lost their paradise. Although, the latter lost the paradise forced by others, but Hwan-Ung(桓雄) decided to lose the paradise by his own will. However, human beings are destined to lose their paradise either willingly or unwillingly since they are human. Humans in Paradise Lost cannot abandon the hope for Paradise Regained. The descendants of Hwan-Ung(桓雄) who chose to leave paradise in heaven long time ago, keep nostalgia for paradise far from the earth, and are yearning for returning. The mythology of three generations of Dan-Kun(檀君) implies the original loss by our nation (or mankind) residing deep inside of the consciousness, and the passion for the corresponding recovery.
