The purpose of this study is to examine the subject of " school gymnastics " which was embodied by the 1909 revised " school law ". The subject of " school gymnastics " made it's sudden appearance in place of the previous "normal gymnastics and military drill" in 1909 and disappeared by 1911. "Teaching method of school gymnastics" edited by Korean Gakubu (the Ministry of Education) gives us a clue to understand the reason why " school gymnastics " was adopted as a schoo1 subject so suddenly. The book was published in 1910 but the preface, which showed the aim of the book, had already been written in 1908. In the preface they declared their dissatisfaction at " military drill " and expressed their wishes to spread " school gymnastics " as a scientific one. " Military dril1 " widely spread to schools including private ones in those days was regarded as a hotbed of anti-Japanese movement. The Ministry of Education adopted " schoo1 gymnastics "as a countermeasure to this movement.
