In spite of a great reservoir of very much a work, very few researchers know what a Sahaeng(使行) means, so there are not understand that Sahaeng``s political meaning. As a result, there are many researchers who do not concerned about yet what a fundamental name of Sahaeng. This study paid attention to what the Korean history academic circles don``t have interest in its politic-diplomatic meaning, in the face of which Joseon had dispatched envoys to the Chinese. The purpose of this dissertation is to study East-Asia international situation``s of Joseon period and to find out its politic-diplomatic historical meaning. And I relieve the concluding remarks through simple arrangement and opinion about the Sahaeng. Joseon belonged to an international order of Ming(明), Ching(淸) center and it was a time to propel a domestic politics reform because of the change of international situation. The international order during the Joseon acted unlike modern meaning so that a moral concept and an idea concept was important. The international relationship in traditional East Asia was performed through a diplomatic form of Sahaeng. The development of an issue, setting diplomatic goals, granting a name of sahaeng, and deciding the right time and size comprised the procedures of Sahaeng. So Joseon reserved international safety and for strengthening the royal authority. Joseon attention Sahaeng to an amicable relationship with Ming(明)·Ching(淸). The key point of Sahaeng toward China in the Joseon period was politic-diplomatic meaning. Especially, as the governing system of China, after the Ming, was strictly based on documentation, the justification of Sahaeng for delivering documents of the Joseon Dynasty King was emphasized, while individual diplomatic activities of Sahaeng``s members were restricted. Sahaeng``s importance mission was the transmit of the diplomacy document and was the achievement of an involvement diplomacy purpose, of the formality courtesy at the except. While the diplomatic role of Sahaeng increased, messengers and other staffs had to experience various cultures during the period of Sahaeng, and kept these accounts for the Sahaeng``s record(使行記錄). The document about the diplomacy was the diplomacy document(外交文書), Sahaeng``s document(使行 文書), Sahaeng``s record. The Sahaeng``s record can distinguish detailly to an official Sahaeng``s record(公的 使行記錄) and an unofficial Sahaeng``s record(私的 使行記錄). In this regard are found throughout studying Inpyeong infante(麟坪大君)``s Sahaeng toward Ching. This era falls on the middle of the Joseon period, which is regarded as a turning point both in the domestic and the international affairs. In the 17th century, it is happened the change of dynasty from Ming Dynasty to Ching Dynasty in china. The change of Joseon is accompanied by the change of diplomatic relations. He have had many dispatched Sahaeng toward Ching was accounted for he was infante. The identity of royal family was help in solving many diplomatic issues in Joseon-Ching relations. Future studies need to refer to the following matters. First, Sahaeng research is interdisciplinary research is essential. Second, There shall be a premise about the Sahaeng``s political character. Third, As a academic term, a review is needed of Sahaeng``s name, Sahaeng``s record, envoy``s name, etc. Fourth, There need to examine the creation of a process for the record in many fields. Fifth, Sahaeng research should extend not only the study of an unofficial Sahaeng``s record but the study of an official Sahaeng``s record, diplomacy document, Sahaeng``s document that will be successful in many fields.
