To overcome the limits of prevention and treatment against Diabetes Mellitus(DM) in Western medicine, there have been tendency finding solutions in traditional medicine based on Sogal. But Sogal had been so various concepts, classification and names. As a result there has been confusion in applying Sogal treatment to DM. So in order to clarify. it is necessary to study Sogal concepts and classification historically. The results of studying changes of Sogal concepts and classification are following: Untill AD 8 century, Sogal had not been only syndrome but also disease with throat and urinating difficulties. From 10c to 13c. Sogal had been divided three types in addition to the theories of internal organs, Samcho and complications. From 13c to 14c, the three types of Sogal theory was improved by various medical theory. But still Sogal covered the concepts of syndrome and disease. After 16c, in Chosun Dynasty, concepts of syndrome was eliminated and concepts of disease was strengthend by accounts on pathology, prognosis, complications and malignities. This tendeny was showed well in 『DongEuiBoGam』 and connected to post doctors in Chosun. It was distiction with Chinese Traditional Medicine’s view regarding Sogal as syndrome and disease as well, up to the present.
