He was born at the time when Japanese ruled the island. He studied very hard and got the permission to be the candidate when he was young. Then he practiced his ideal becoming a professional scholar by following Confucius’ rules and principles.
He revitalized the culture and education system and stood as a role of advocacy even before he became an official in the government. Moreover, he visited Gansu, a province of China, for thirteen years. He made great achievement in Gansu, so he was highly praised by the people. After he returned from Gansu, he continued to honor and gave compliments to Confucianism of all his life. His demeanor could be summarized into a few words, the holy person who lets.
My thesis aims at analyzing Lee’s life and his collection of poems “Westward Poem Volumes”.

Besides making a careful description of his works, I would like to make a just, exact appreciation of Lee’s life and show his attitudes confronting with Japanese’s governance.
