The study looked at the tea ceremony for the reception of the Japanese envoys, which were in a neighboring-country relationship during the Joseon period, determined by dividing the period into the former period and the latter period. The tea ceremony during the former Joseon period was not customary, but it was held on the level of a friendly talk between the Japanese envoys and interpretation commissioners. Also, the offering of the tea ceremony was taken care of by interpretation commissioners. Furthermore, sometimes, the tea ceremony was performed in a concrete ceremonial form, but this was temporary only when a banquet or a feast could not be offered due to some cases including national mourning. As such, the tea ceremony has become customary beginning with the latter Joseon period. It was discovered that the number of performances of the tea ceremony and their methods were written in detail in foreign diplomatic books, which previously omitted records about the tea ceremony. This means that the tea ceremony was also modified with certain standards for performance like at a banquet or a feast. In the meantime, a person in charge of organizing the tea ceremony included Dongraebusa(東萊府使), Busancheomsa(釜山僉使), and Jeobwigwan(接慰官). Therefore, the tea ceremony had a greater importance than in the past when it was organized by Tongsa(通事). Nevertheless, these documents do not mention whether liquor was used instead of tea for the performance of the tea ceremony during the later Joseon period. Hence, it was hard to disclose the reason why it was still called the tea ceremony while actually being a drinking ceremony. This part may be deemed as important in revealing the mid-stage of the tea ceremony; however, to my regret, it still has to remain in question as of now.
