Abstract
This paper considers the funeral rites places of Ryu's family on traditional "UNJORU" houses in the Joseon Dynasty. The funeral rites are based on ideas of confucianism, while there are variety of opinions about the places. Throughout this paper, we discuss the places by the daily life of Ryu's family, and discover its meanings and feature. As a result, we obtain the major conclusion that Ryu's family did not obey the usual convention but did choose the places according to status order in family, and clearly interpret the meanings that why Sarang-room was not be used during the process.
