Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan, Zhuge Liang… See the true colors of countless heroes who lived through troubled times!

What we commonly call the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is Luo Guanzhong's novel Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Originally, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was compiled by Chen Shou, and is an official history of the three kingdoms of Wei, Shu, and Wu in China.
《Romance of the Three Kingdoms》 is merely a novel based on 《Records of the Three Kingdoms》, so the two should not be confused. 《Records of the Three Kingdoms》 is not a simple record of history, but a comprehensive summary of an era that begins with the chaotic social conditions of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, which was called a "chaotic era," and encompasses the establishment of the Three Kingdoms, the transfer of power from Eastern Han to Wei, the fall of Shu, the transfer of power from Wei to Jin, and the fall of Wu. For this reason, it is considered one of the most notable historical books in ancient Chinese history, along with Sima Qian's 《Records of the Grand Historian》 and Ban Gu's 《Book of Han》.


The thrill of true history transcending fiction! Professor Kim Won-joong, a master translator of Eastern classics, has translated the first official Korean version of Chen Shou's Romance of the Three Kingdoms!

Jinshu attempted to describe the history of the Three Kingdoms in the form of a chronicle, but when faced with the situation where the monarchs of Wei, Shu, and Wu each called themselves emperors, he hesitated over which of the three countries to grant legitimacy to, and ultimately decided to grant legitimacy to Wei.
The reason for this is believed to be that the country in which Jin Su held office was the Jin Dynasty, and the Jin Dynasty's predecessor was the Wei Dynasty.
One of the charms of the 'Records of the Three Kingdoms' is that during the Northern and Southern Dynasties period, Song Beisongzi, who was disappointed that the content and description of the 'Records of the Three Kingdoms' were too brief, added annotations. This can be said to be the most popular version of the 'Records of the Three Kingdoms' that has been passed down to later generations.
The translator selected the most relevant content from the vast volume of delivery notes and translated them into annotations.
This book is a revised edition of the 《Records of the Three Kingdoms》, which was published by Professor Kim Won-joong of the Department of Chinese Language Education at Dankook University, who is considered the leading translator of Oriental classics in Korea and the first individual to translate Sima Qian's 《Records of the Grand Historian》 in the world, after meticulously examining it from the beginning, revising the translation and annotations.
