物語
映画の中のあの川、本当に清冷浦だったのかな。『王と暮らす男』を見る前は、端宗と言えば正直、教科書で見た幼い王という程度だった。
でも映画を見た後は、不思議と王よりも、ただの十七歳の一人の人間が先に思い浮かんだ。エム・フンドと食事をして、冗談を言い合って、川辺でぼんやり座っている姿のせいかもしれない。
映画を見て初めてちゃんと知ったこともある。そもそも端宗が王位を失うことになったのは、1453年の癸酉靖難(ケユジョンナン)がきっかけだった。叔父の首陽大君(後の世祖)が金宗瑞や皇甫仁といった重臣たちを粛清し、実権をほぼ全て握った事件だ。
そして1456年、成三問や朴彭年ら集賢殿出身の臣下たちが端宗を王位に戻そうとして発覚し、処刑される。これがあの有名な「死六臣」事件だ。この一件以降、端宗は完全に孤立していく。
つまり映画が始まる1457年の寧越流刑は、すでに数年にわたって進んでいた政治的破局の、最後の段階だったわけだ。
終盤に近づくにつれ、「ああ、この子が結局どうなるか私は知っているのに…」と思って、余計に心が動いた。

だから映画にずっと出てきたあの川も気になった。端宗が流刑された寧越の清冷浦。当然映画もここで撮ったと思っていたけど、実際は違う。
清冷浦は文化遺産で大規模な撮影が難しく、制作陣は寧越一帯を回った末、別の川辺に村を新しく作った。道もなかった場所だったので、撮影のために道から作ったという。
撮影が終わった後、セットはすべて撤去された。だから映画の中のエム・フンドの家は今はもう訪ねることができない。
その代わり、本物の端宗が閉じ込められていた清冷浦はそのまま残っている。今も船に乗って入らなければならず、三方は川、後ろは崖だ。写真で見るだけでも少し息が詰まる。
映画を見た後だとなおさらそう感じる。あの川を毎日見つめながらも渡れなかったのだと思うと、映画で端宗が川辺に座っていたシーンがつい思い出される。
そしてあのシーンにも小さなエピソードがある。端宗が一人で川辺に座っている姿は、もともと脚本にはなかった。休憩時間に川辺に座っていたパク・ジフンをスタッフが撮影し、その写真を見たユ・ヘジンが「これ、シーンとして一度撮ってみたらどうか」と提案して映画に入ったという。

それを知ると、あのシーンが少し違って見えた。演技している王というより、少しだけ一人になりたい若者のように見えて。
清冷浦の中には、端宗が漢陽を眺めたという魯山台、貞純王后を思いながら石を積んだと伝わる望郷塔、端宗の姿を見守ったという話が残る観音松もある。
結末までネタバレしてしまうと、端宗はその年の10月、結局観風軒で賜薬を受けて息を引き取る。誰も遺体を引き取ろうとしなかったそのとき、エム・フンドただ一人が命懸けで密かに遺体を収め、埋葬する。
そしてここが本当にぞっとする部分なのだが、エム・フンドが密かに埋めたその場所が、約240年後の粛宗の時代に端宗が復位したことで、正式な王陵「荘陵」になる。一人の人間が命を懸けて守った場所が、時を経て正式に認められたということだ。
私はまだ寧越に行ったことはないけれど、映画を見た後は一度行ってみたくなった。撮影地の記念写真を撮りに行くというより、端宗が実際に見つめていたというあの川を一度見てみたくて。
映画のセットはなくなったけれど、その物語が始まった場所も、そしてその物語が遅れて認められた場所(荘陵)も、まだそこにあるから。

王と暮らす男のすべての場所(34か所)
청령포 (강원 영월군 남면 광천리)
A "land-locked island" surrounded on three sides by the Seogang River and blocked behind by steep peaks. This is where Danjong was first exiled in June 1457 after his deposition, and it can still only be reached by ferry today. Note that the film's Cheongnyeongpo scenes were actually shot at a set in nearby Seondol Village due to the site's modern tourist development — this is not the filming location, but the real historical site where the events actually happened.
단종어소 (청령포 내)
Danjong's reconstructed exile residence inside Cheongnyeongpo. Wax figures inside recreate his life in exile, letting visitors gauge the size and isolation of the room where the deposed 17-year-old king actually stayed.
관음송 (청령포 내)
A 600-year-old, 30-meter pine tree whose name — combining the characters for "see" and "sound" — comes from a legend that it both saw and heard Danjong weeping. Designated a natural monument.
엄흥도 소나무 (청령포 내)
A pine tree in front of Danjong's residence, oddly bent low as if bowing. It's nicknamed after Eom Heung-do, the loyal official who risked his life to retrieve Danjong's body after his death.
망향탑 (청령포 내)
A stone tower Danjong is said to have built stone by stone while longing for the queen and mother he left behind in Hanyang (Seoul). Located partway up the hill behind Cheongnyeongpo.
단묘유지비 (청령포 내)
A monument marking the old site of Danjong's exile, erected in the late Joseon period after his innocence was officially restored.
금표비 (청령포 내)
A boundary stone erected during Danjong's exile marking a line not to be crossed — a real artifact showing that Cheongnyeongpo functioned as a near-imprisonment.
장릉 (강원 영월군 영월읍 영흥리, 유네스코 세계유산)
Danjong's royal tomb. The spot where Eom Heung-do secretly buried him became an official royal tomb — Jangneung — some 240 years later, when Danjong was posthumously restored as king under Sukjong. It is the only Joseon royal tomb located outside the Seoul-Gyeonggi area, itself a mark of how exceptional his death was. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site among the Joseon Royal Tombs.
관풍헌 (강원 영월군 영월읍 중앙로)
The government guesthouse in Yeongwol where Danjong was moved after two months, once Cheongnyeongpo faced flood risk during monsoon season. He lived here for roughly two more months before being forced to drink poison and dying. His final residence and the site of his death.
자규루 (관풍헌 옆, 강원 영월군 영월읍)
Originally named Maejungnu, this pavilion was renamed Jagyuru after Danjong composed the poem "Jagyusa" (Song of the Cuckoo) here, comparing his own plight to a cuckoo's cry. The poem remains a defining piece of literature representing Danjong's sorrow.
선돌 (강원 영월군 영월읍 방절리, 영월 10경)
A towering rock formation on a cliff above the Seogang River, one of Yeongwol's Ten Scenic Views. Danjong's exile road to Cheongnyeongpo is said to have followed the riverside path beneath this cliff.
선돌마을 (강원 영월군 영월읍 방절리)
After searching the whole country, the film crew found that this village's waterway and mountain terrain remarkably resembled Cheongnyeongpo. Since the real Cheongnyeongpo is too developed for tourism to allow filming, a set recreating old Cheongnyeongpo was built here, and most of the exile scenes were shot at this actual location.
소나기재 전망대 (강원 영월군 영월읍)
An overlook offering a sweeping view of Seondol Village, the Seogang River, and the Seondol rock formation together — also the best vantage point for viewing the film's Seondol Village set.
어라연 (강원 영월군 김삿갓면 거운리)
A scenic gorge on the Donggang River where jagged cliffs rise along the waterway. The scene of Danjong crossing the river by raft during his exile journey was actually filmed here.
판운리 섶다리 (강원 영월군 한반도면 판운리)
A traditional bridge made of wood and earth, a well-known feature of the Donggang River — rebuilt each winter and washed away each monsoon season. It served as a backdrop for scenes of Danjong's exile journey.
배일치재 (강원 영월군 진입로 고갯마루)
A mountain pass where Danjong is said to have bowed in longing toward the queen and mother he left in Hanyang. A stone statue depicting him bowing, along with a monument, still stands at the summit today. Part of the 44.5km "King Danjong's Exile Road" trail.
창절서원 (창절사, 강원 영월군 영월읍 팔괴리)
A Confucian academy that began as a shrine honoring the spirits of the Six Martyred Ministers, later expanded in 1828 to also enshrine Eom Heung-do alongside them. The representative site in Yeongwol for honoring the Six Martyred Ministers.
금강공원 (낙화암 옛터, 강원 영월군 영월읍 봉래산)
The former site of Nakhwaam ("Falling Flowers Rock"), where Danjong's attendants are said to have thrown themselves into the river after his death. Recent "Bongnaesan landmark development" construction of a scenic footbridge and observation tower has considerably changed its original appearance.
창덕궁 (서울 종로구 율곡로, 유네스코 세계유산)
The palace from which Danjong departed on June 22, 1457, to begin his journey into exile. His final farewell to Queen Jeongsun is said to have taken place nearby. The journey to Cheongnyeongpo took seven grueling days.
경복궁 근정전 (서울 종로구 사직로)
The site where Sejo was formally enthroned in 1455 in a coerced abdication ceremony forced upon Danjong. A symbolic stage for the Sejo regime that had fully seized power after the Gyeyu Coup.
사육신공원 (서울 동작구 노량진동)
The site of the tombs of the Six Martyred Ministers — Seong Sam-mun, Bak Paeng-nyeon, Ha Wi-ji, Yi Gae, Yu Seong-won, Yu Eung-bu, and the posthumously recognized Kim Mun-gi. Sanctified and developed into a park in 1978; the tombs are designated a Seoul Tangible Cultural Property.
민절서원 (사육신공원 내)
A Confucian academy built in 1681 by King Sukjong to honor the loyalty of the Six Martyred Ministers. Sanctified together with their tombs to form today's Sayuksin Park.
정업원구기 (서울 종로구 숭인동)
The former site of Jeongeobwon, the Buddhist convent where Queen Jeongsun lived as a nun after parting with Danjong. King Yeongjo later erected a monument here to commemorate this history.
청룡사 (서울 종로구 숭인동)
The temple that succeeded Jeongeobwon. Danjong is said to have shared his final farewell with Queen Jeongsun at this temple's Uhwaru pavilion before departing for Yeongwol.
동망봉 (서울 종로구 숭인동, 낙산 지봉)
The peak Queen Jeongsun is said to have climbed daily, gazing toward Yeongwol and weeping in longing for Danjong. The characters "東望峯" (Dongmangbong, "Gazing East Peak") are carved into the rock face.
자지동천 (서울 종로구 숭인동)
A well site tied to a legend that Queen Jeongsun dyed cloth purple here to make a living. The story reflects the impoverished life she led after her husband's exile, despite once having been queen.
사릉 (경기 남양주시 진건읍, 유네스코 세계유산)
Queen Jeongsun's royal tomb. Having lived alone for 64 years after Danjong's death, she was buried separately here rather than alongside him. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site among the Joseon Royal Tombs.
금성단 (경북 영주시 순흥면)
The site where Prince Geumseong, while in exile, plotted Danjong's restoration with Sunheung magistrate Yi Bo-heum. When the plot was discovered — an incident known as the Jeongchuk Rebellion — the entire Sunheung district was abolished and many residents were punished along with him. In the 18th year of King Yeongjo's reign, the Geumseongdan altar was built to honor Prince Geumseong's righteous death.
강화도 (인천 강화군)
The island where Prince Anpyeong was exiled and ultimately forced to end his life after the Gyeyu Coup. The site where a prince celebrated as a master of poetry, calligraphy, and painting became a victim of political purge.
낙빈서원(육신사) (대구 달성군 하빈면 묘리)
A Confucian academy in Daegu housing "Yuksinsa," a shrine dedicated to the Six Martyred Ministers. Built as Nakbin Seowon in 1691, memorial rites for the Six Martyrs continue here to this day.
충절사 (경북 문경시)
A shrine in Mungyeong honoring Eom Heung-do's loyalty, built in the area where he is said to have lived in hiding after leaving Yeongwol.
동학사 (충남 공주시 반포면, 계룡산)
A temple in the foothills of Gyeryongsan Mountain where Eom Heung-do is said to have observed the traditional three-year mourning period for Danjong after leaving Yeongwol.
성삼문 선생 유허지 (충남 홍성군 홍북읍, 노은서원)
The birthplace of Seong Sam-mun, at his maternal family's home. A shrine was built here in 1676, later expanded to also honor Bak Paeng-nyeon, Yi Gae, Yu Seong-won, Ha Wi-ji, and Yu Eung-bu, becoming known as Noeun Seowon. The Chungmunsa shrine building still stands.
서산서원 (경북 상주시)
A Confucian academy honoring all six of the "Living Six Loyal Subjects" — Kim Si-seup, Won Ho, Yi Maeng-jeon, Jo Ryeo, Seong Dam-su, and Nam Hyo-on. Jo Ryeo was enshrined first, and the other five joined him in 1706 during King Sukjong's reign, forming the shrine as it stands today.
