This paper investigates the layers of conflicts and the methods of presenting conflicts in Gyechugilgi written by court ladies in the middle of the Choseon Dynasty. The authors deal with court ladies' conflicts and trials with great seriousness. This means that they did not regard these struggles as problems derived from conflicts between King Kwanghae and Queen dowager Inmok. Gyechugilgi represents conflicts by quoting conversations, showing characters meditating conflicts, and describing episodes. Consequently the authors recognized the conflicts in this text as human problems that result from personal desires rather than political problems, and the literary characteristics of this text can be found in this point. This study ascertains the characteristics of Gyechugilgi from various viewpoints.

지난 1989년 처음 학계에 보고돼 그 존재가 알려졌던 "병자일기"는, 비슷한 시기의 "산성일기"나 그보다 약간 앞선 "계축일기"가 궁녀에 의해 씌어져 궁중문학적 성격이 짙은 데 반해, 병자호란 당시의 한 사대부집 부녀자가 당대의 민간생활상을 꼼꼼히 기록한 것이라는 점에서 큰 의의를 평가받고 있다.
