Dear Gwang,

Sin KisOn(1815-1909) was Minister of Education, from June 1896 to
October of the same year. (See <<Kwanbo>>, KOnyang first year, July 16;
Sohodang chip, 2; Yi UsOng, "haeje", <<Sin KisOn chOnjip>> 1, Seoul:
Asea munhwasa 1981,11) He was apointed to the post in 1899, once again.
(See, Yi UsOng, 11) Sin was not, however, first Minister of Education:
Pak ChOngyang (1841-1904) was. (See <<Kojong sillok>>; <<Chungbo munhOn
pigo>>; <<SungjOngwOn ilgi>>; <<Taehan kyenyOnsa>> ect.)
