Jeong Rip (1574–1629) was a scholar-official of the Joseon Dynasty Korea.
He was also diplomat and ambassador, representing Joseon interests in the 3rd Edo period diplomatic mission to the Tokugawa shogunate in Japan.[1]
1624 mission to Japan
Jeong Rip was the leader selected by the Joseon king to head a mission to Japan in 1624.[2] This diplomatic mission functioned to the advantage of both the Japanese and the Koreans as a channel for developing a political foundation for trade.[3]
This delegation was explicitly identified by the Joseon court as a "Reply and Prisoner Repatriation Envoy" (회답겸쇄환사, 回答兼刷還使). This mission was not understood to signify that relations were "normalized."[4]
