The Choson state (1392-1910) is typically portrayed as a rigid
society because of its hereditary status system, slavery, and
Confucian gender norms. However, The Emotions of Justice reveals a
surprisingly complex picture of a judicial system that operated in
a contradictory fashion by discriminating against subjects while
simultaneously minimizing such discrimination. Jisoo Kim contends
that the state's recognition of won, or the sense of being wronged,
permitted subjects of different genders or statuses to interact in
the legal realm and in doing so illuminates the intersection of
law, emotions, and gender in premodern Korea.
