Nongae
Nongae (? ~ 1593) 〔Birth year of her is doubtful: some references indicate it would be around 1574.〕〔(Korean culture content )〕 was a gisaeng of Jinju in the late 16th century, born in Jangsu, Jeolla province.〔(Nongae Shrine )〕 She has been taught and celebrated as one of the examples of personal contributions of Korean women.
==Life==
Born between Ju Dal-moon who seemed to be a learned scholar and Mrs. Park, she was the late child to the couple whose son died at a young age of fifteen. When she was just 4, her father died and her extended family plotted to take her, wanting to make her the wife of a male heir. Her mother soon found out and stole her away but was caught and jailed. Her trial was overseen by province official Choi Kyong Hwe who ruled on behalf of her innocence but Nongae, seeing that she had no place to go and no family to trust, at the age of 17 became his concubine and lived in his house.〔〔
In 1592, Japanese forces invaded Korean peninsula, which is so-called Imjin war, while official Choi (husband of Nongae) was assassinated. Afterwards, the Japanese were finally successful in their invasion of Suyeong fortress (now near Jinju area). To celebrate the victory, soldiers forced all kisaengs, what are female entertainers, to serve them at the Chokseongnu Pavilion on a cliff which overlooked Nam River. Nongae was also called to entertain the victorious Japanese generals alongside other kisaengs. She led the general, Keyamura Rokusuke (毛谷村六助) to the cliff where she embraced him, held fast her fingers with rings that locked her around him and cast herself along with the general into the river, killing them both. It is said that she sacrificed herself not only as a revenge of her husband's murder but also as a patriotic commitment.〔(Mount Jirisan area reveals rich heritage and culture ) Korea Herald, 2014-05-23〕 The rock from which she leapt has come to be known as Uiam (의암, 義巖), "the rock of righteousness."〔
