Yi Ji-ham (1517–1578) was a Joseon Dynasty scholar widely known as the author of 'Tojeong Bigyeol,' a book of folk prophecy and fortune-telling. His tomb is located on a hillside in the northwest of Boryeong overlooking the West Sea. It is said Yi Ji-ham chose this site for his burial during his own lifetime.
