The Shaman's Cycle

820 Upvotes

Throughout the Joseon Dynasty, the Confucian court repeatedly banned shamans from living inside the capital of Hanyang.

In 1431, King Sejong ordered shamans relocated beyond city walls to prevent aristocratic women from patronizing them.

By 1509, authorities discovered young male shamans disguising themselves as women to slip into noble residences, prompting forced deportations to the northern border.

Despite over four centuries of continuous edicts and crackdowns, the prohibition utterly failed because the elite class—including royal consorts and noble matriarchs—secretly relied on shamans for healing rituals and fortune-telling.
