Review and editorial notes: An AI translation of Hyeon Jin-geon’s story from a pinned Korean Wikisource transcription, revised after a further AI review against the Korean text and a full English read-through. It has not been reviewed by a professional translator or human editor. Cheomji is a form of address attached to Kim’s surname, and gisaeng were trained female entertainers. Seolleongtang is a beef-bone soup, and moju and makgeolli are distinct traditional drinks. Jeon and won are units of money, ri is a unit of distance, and doe measures volume. The translation keeps the story’s figures as given. Some period wording remains open to interpretation.
