Virtue That Matters is a groundbreaking exploration of chastity culture in Choson Korea that illustrates the interplay between state-led indoctrination, socio-legal changes, and gender relations. Jungwon Kim includes women’s own writings and argues that chastity culture was a product of Confucianization, social forces, and individual agency.
