Taegyo () refers to a traditional Korean concept that encompasses practices and beliefs related to prenatal development. Part of traditional Korean medicine, it dictates what actions a mother should take in order to have a healthy child. ==History== thumb|Grave of Lee Sajudang
Taegyo was introduced into Korea from China at the end of the 918–1392 Goryeo period. During the 1392–1910 Joseon period, it grew in popularity. In 1800, the Korean female scholar Yi Sajudang () wrote a book on the subject entitled Taegyosingi (). In her book, Yi asserted that, for a child, the ten months of education it receives in the mother's womb is more important than the ten years of education that follows it. Proponents of taegyo claim that its ideas overlap with, but originated significantly earlier in time than the child development theories of the Western world.
