*''Korean/Japanese'': [[申]] 維翰 ''(Sin Yu-Han / Shin Yuhan)''
Sin Yu-Han was a Korean scholar-official, who served as ''chesulgwan'' (製述官, chief composer of documents) on a [[1719]] [[Korean embassies to Edo|Korean embassy to Edo]], under Lead Envoy Hong Ch'ijung, Vice Envoy Hwang Sŏn, and Secretary Yi Myŏng'ŏn. The ''[[Haeyurok]]'', an account of his travels produced by Sin during that journey, is considered a particularly significant and useful document for historians examining those embassies, and Korean-Japanese relations and attitudes towards one another more broadly during the [[Edo period]].
