musuri
''Musuri'' is a Korean term referring to female slaves in charge of odd chores in the court during the Goryeo and Joseon Dynasty of Korea. Their main tasks were miscellaneous works such as drawing water from a well, making a fire in the fireplace or cleaning.〔(【引用サイトリンク】script-title=ko:무수리 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】script-title=ko:무수리 )〕
==Etymology==
Every palace had wells, and drawing water and delivering it as needed were an important part of a tomusuri's duty. For this reason, ''musuri'' were also called ''susa'' (水賜, literally "giving water") or ''susai'' (水賜伊, a female in charge of giving water) and their residence was called a ''susagan'' (水賜間, a place for those drawing water〔http://kordic.empas.com/dicsearch/view.html?i=22578300〕). On the other hand, male slaves were called ''paji'' (巴只). Although the terms, ''susai'' and ''paji'' do not appear in Goryeosa, a book compiled about the "History of Goryeo", the Annals of King Taejong (Taejong sillok) mention the class. From this record the Joseon royal court followed the system of the former state; Goryeo, young boys designated as male slaves were called ''paji'', in charge of cleaning in the court, while female slaves were called ''susai''. The record indicates that the system of ''susai'' and ''paji'' existed since the Goryeo Dynasty.〔
The term ''musuri'' was originally used in the Mongol court, so it is assumed that the term came into use in the late Goryeo period. At first ''musuri'' travelled in and out of the court, but King Taejong changed the system to prevent their spreading court affairs. Since December of 1411 in the lunar calendar, the musuri stayed at court all the time.〔〔
