To implement the Korea Biographical Database Project (KBDB), this study examined the China Biographical Database Project (CBDB, 中國歷代人物傳記資料庫), which was digitally implemented by synthesizing information on Chinese historical figures. The CBDB not only presents a data design that realizes complex information on historical personalities, but also contributes to the development of a historical research methodology through data sharing. With the CBDB as a reference, using the Hongmunrok(弘文錄) as an example, we proposed a design scheme for a KBDB that can interconnect the Korean Historical Personality Information System of the Academy of Korean Studies, the National Institute of Korean History’s Supplement to the Records of the Joseon Dynasty, and the Translation of Korean Classics Comprehensive Database.
