조선중기 유몽인이 편찬한 설화집이다. 처음에는 10권으로 구성되었으나 유몽인이 모반혐의로 죽음에 이르러, 자료들이 손실되어 5권1책만 남아 있다. 전체는 인륜편(1권), 종교편(2권), 학예편(3권), 사회편(4권), 만물편(5권)으로 구성되어 있다. 1960년 한글본으로 출간되었다.

This collection of folktales compiled by Yu Mong-in is from the middle of the Joseon dynasty. Originally, it was published in ten volumes, but when Yu was accused of usurpation and executed, much of it was lost. His descendant, Yu Je-han, later compiled the book into five volumes: “Human Morality,” “Religion,” “Arts and Sciences,” “Society,” and “All Creations.” The collection was transcribed into Korean and published in 1960.
