[KS] Dictionary or glossary for Choson era terms

[Hwa Yeong Wang]

There is a Glossary of Korean Studies (http://glossary.aks.ac.kr/by AKS,
which I found very useful. It offers the whole sentence of the example with
citation information.
For example, it has two translations: “rank-land system” by Deuchler and
"Rank Land Law" by Lee Ki-baek.
