燕行录”是近年中、韩较为关注的重要域外汉籍，其中有较多文学、历史、宗教、经济等珍贵文献材料。已经整理出来的“燕行录”，时间上自公元十二世纪初至十九世纪末，内容涵盖自宋至清朝鲜半岛高丽、朝鲜王朝前往中国的使臣及相关人员篡写的使行录与各类诗文，包括刻本、抄本、印本等类别。由于其时间跨度长达七百余年，“燕行录”中产生了大量俗字并形成一定的演变规律，尤其值得我们关注。本文围绕如下几个方面就朝鲜“燕行录”中的俗字研究展开论述：首先，“燕行录”中俗字的产生有着强烈中国文化印记，这尤其体现在政治背景和文化与学术两方面；其次， “燕行录”俗字的类型较多，有增加意符、省略意符、改换意符、改换声符、类化、简省以及其他小类型，如全体创造、合文、增繁等；再次，在前代俗字的承继、辞书编纂及“燕行录学”等方面展开“燕行录”俗字研究，对汉字发展及域外传播研究具有重要价值；第四，“燕行录”俗字研究与朝鲜半岛文化研究关系密切，可从朝鲜半岛特色俗字的出现和《燕行录全集》中韩国固有汉字两个方面进行分析；最后，“燕行录”俗字研究对国际中文教育中汉字及书法教学的具有参考意义。
