The concept of sports constitutes of sound physical activities in a true spiritual ground. This sports culture has been observed throughout history in many art works created by a variety of forming methods and are being expressed in various forms even today. These art works have been used to meet some needs in the field of sports and on the other hand, new discoveries of unique formativeness in the sports culture have led to development of new art cultures. Joseon set a policy to oppress Buddhism and admire Confucianism as their guiding ideology. So, in this environment flourished paintings that showed a practical culture and simplicity. Based on this context, we will look into the characteristics and changes of various forms of sports cultures in Korean art and also see what contents can have historical values attracting us within their artistic spectrums. For example, Kim Hong Do painting; it is a late 19th century work, drawn on a paper in light color (27.0��22.7 cm), describing a Korean traditional wrestling called Ssireum. It depicts a specific technique in Ssireum, known as duijibgi (a move similar to back-drop). It shows the moment where the player focuses on making his move, excited crowd having fun and making noise, some showing resentment etc. The picture is very detailed as you can see the concession standing there pretending he is not part of the scene, humorous expression of various characters, the anticipation of victory and defeat, detailed facial expression of cheers and sadness and the chaotic scene altogether. It shows well the plot of the scene by describing the psychological side of each player, their facial expression and the tension between them and their composition of confrontation.
