This article examines traditional Korean toponymy in which two main methods have been divided into the intra-linguistic, loan transcription approach and the extra-linguistic, toponymic territory approach in the case study on the Preface of 『疆界考』 (Ganggyego, Geographical Explanation of the Korean Territory and Border) written by Sin Gyeong-Jun (1756), as well as considering defects and countermeasures in the epistemology and methodology intrinsic to the traditional toponymy. Above all, I diagnosed the problems related to locating the exact sites and territories of ancient toponyms, which is the biggest and most complicated question in the history of Korean toponymy, and suggest a prescription for locating toponyms in four ways. First, the researchers of toponymy should put the concepts such as space, pure Korean toponym, and fieldwork on a sound footing of traditional toponymy, which has been neglected by toponymists. Second, the researchers must study the relations between toponymy and power, especially, how and why the pure Korean toponyms have been transcribed in the Chinese characters through the semantic transcription by the intellectual class. Third, the researchers should recognize that a toponym is a political and social construct transplanted, relocated, transgressed, and contested. Lastly, the future toponymy has to be performed in the integrated and interdisciplinary approach, leaping over the closing fence of the pre-existing academic discipline.
