Editorial principles

  • Every entry cites its sources. Original classical passages are quoted from public-domain text and verified against the Korean Medicine Classics Database (mediclassics.kr) of the Korea Institute of Oriental Medicine.
  • Modern explanations are written originally by our editorial team with AI assistance, then reviewed before publication. AI-assisted content is never published without human review.
  • We describe traditional usage as tradition — we do not make medical claims, and we clearly separate historical description from modern evidence.
  • Images are used only with verified licenses (public domain, CC0, properly attributed CC-BY, or our own).
  • Corrections are welcome and logged. Contact us via the address on this page.
