King Hyojong strengthened the capital army of the Joseon dynasty, as the domestic situation was settled down to some degree after Ch'ing intervention diminished. He tried to mount even an all-out hunt for fugitive slaves and to enforce a youngjang system for the military expansion and the buildup of local armies. But the attempt was confronted with the public resentment as well as the opposition from the bureaucracy as the country had a bad harvest one after another, then at last it failed. To break the deadlock, the king gave Song Si-yol to responsible posts consecutively, and expressed his willness to launch a northern expedition. But, in reality, to execute the plan for a northern expedition was impossible. The national finance was in a bad condition at the time, then to mobilize of a large scale strength of military power was very difficult, and many government officials went in the opposite direction too. The plan was just an impracticable daydream which had never been carried out. In addition, it was only several months in late Hyojong's regime during when rustic literati(sallim) like Song Si-yol hold important positions. Therefore we have not to grasp Hyojong's political situation focusing on the plan for northern subjugation or Song Si-yol. It was after Hyonjong's accession to the throne that Song used his strong political influence. And a theory of loyalty to Ming at that time also have to be analyzed objectively, separated from the plan for a northern expedition.
본 학회는 "역사학의 발전과 민족문화의 창달에 이바지한다"는 목표하에 도내의 역사학자들을 주축으로 1976년에 창립된 이래 30년 이상의 연륜을 이어온 정통 역사학회이다. 수차례의 학술대회를 개최하였을 뿐 아니라, 학술지 '전북사학'을 30호까지 발간하면서 지역 사학 발전의 토대를 놓았다는 평가를 받고 있다. 본 학회는 현재 약 240여명의 회원을 두고 있으며, 격월로 임원회의와 월례발표회를 개최하고 있다. 매 발표회에 실제로 참여하는 인원이 항상 30명이 넘는다. 대부분의 역사관련 학회가 주로 대학교수나 강사들로 구성되어 있는 데 비해 전북사학회는 대학교수, 강사는 물론 학예사, 연구원, 중등학교 역사담당교사 등 역사와 관련된 다양한 구성원들로 이루어져 있다는 장점을 지니고 있다. 대학에서 연구한 역사학에 관한 이론을 중등학교 교육 현장에 올바로 적용하여 이론과 실제를 하나로 만들려는 것이 향후 전북사학회의 지향점이다.
