Since 1896, he has worked as an official in Oibu and Uijeongbu, and was appointed as a deputy doctor of the Central Committee in 1911 and served until his death in 1917. The Korean Merger Memorial Medal given by the Japanese government to those who contributed to the signing of the Korea-Japan Merger Treaty was also awarded in 1912.

It was included in the list of 708 pro-Japanese groups announced by the National Spirit-setting National Assembly in 2002, the list of prospective pro-Japanese biographies compiled by the Institute for National Affairs in 2008, and the 106 pro-Japanese anti-national activities investigation committee in 2006.
