We analyzed 57 ytpes of herbal medicines for Soeumin, clinically applied in Dongyisoosebowon. In order to discover the standard of herbal classification for the Sasang Constitutions, four concepts of Sasang Medicine were applied. These included ’Sadangron (theory of four grups)’, ’Seungganggaehap(ascending-descending and gathering-dispersing)’, ’Pyorihanyoul(exterior-interior and hot-cold)’, and ’Hyungchiaekmi(fragrance, smell, bodily fluid and taste)’. According to these analyzing methods of herbal properties, we have reached the following conclusions: 1. Lee Je-ma first established the physiology of the internal organs of the Sasang Constitutions through the understanding of constitutional pathology. Dr. Lee then classified herbal medicines into four constitutional groups by observing the herbal effects according to such perspective of organ physiology and pathology. 2. Among the Sasang concepts applied in the analysis of herbal properties based on the physiology and phathology of Sasang constitutions, ’Seungganggaehap (ascending-descending and gathering-dispersing)’ was found to be the most useful. Meanwhile, ’Sadangron, (the theory of four groups-Spirit, Qi, Blood and Essence)’, along with ’Pyorihanyoul (ecterior-interior and hot-cold)’ and ’Hyungchiaekmi (fragrance, smell, bodily fluid and taste)’ were partially useful. 3. Herbal medicines for Soeumin are characterized by ascending energetics that protect the Yang Qi. The ’Exterior heat disease’ is treated with herbal medicines that raise the "Exterior Yang" in three different way: by tonifying Qi, by tonifying Blood and by releasing exterior. The ’Interior cold disease’ is treated with herbal medicines that descend "Interior Yin" in two ways. One by rarming the stomach, and the other by regulating Qi. 4. Cases where a whole category of gerbs with the same effect have been applied to one cosnstitution, are most frequent among Shaoyin herbs. There was an intimate connection bewteen the treatment methods and the traditional effects of herbs for ’Soeumin’. These discoveries allowed us to see that the development of the pharmacology of the Sasang Constitutional pathology more progressed in ’Soeumin’. *analying simple herbs of 『DongEuiBoGam ·JangBu』, we compare JangBu of traditional oriental medicine with Jang Bu of Sasang Constitutional Medicine. So we can Comprehend the JangBu’s difference of traditional-oriental with sasang-constitional medicine.
