TASK {
  Create ONE image of a Joseon-dynasty state examination answer sheet (시권, 試券) that I would have written if I had taken the gwageo exam. Place a Korean museum translation panel next to it.
  No person should appear in the image. Do not require a reference photo.
}

ANALYSIS {
  Analyze me using everything you know about me: conversation history, memory, my work, habits, interests, and way of thinking.
  Decide on your own:
  - Which exam I would have taken and its category.
  - The exam question (시제, 試題): a question in Classical Chinese suited to someone like me, witty but plausible for Joseon.
  - My answer: a short composition in Classical Chinese that reflects my real personality, opinions, and habits.
  - The grade I received, chosen realistically from these Joseon grading terms: 二上, 二中, 二下, 三上, 三中, 三下, 次上, 次中, 次下, 更.
  - The examiner's red-ink comments: what was good and what was bad, in the dry, slightly cutting tone of a Joseon examiner.
  - Whether I passed or failed.

DOCUMENT {
  Show a large, wide sheet of aged hanji with visible fibers, faint fold lines, light foxing, and soft yellow-brown aging, laid flat on a dark wooden display surface.
  On the right side, show the 피봉 (皮封) name section, folded and sealed with a paper flap and a red seal so the examinee's name is hidden.
  Near the top right, write the exam question in large, clear brush characters.
  Write my answer in vertical columns, read from right to left, in elegant black-ink haengseo (running script). Keep it to about 8 to 12 columns.
  Add the examiner's red ink (주필, 朱筆):
    - Write the grade large in red near the question.
    - Add red circles and dots (비점, 批點) beside phrases the examiner liked.
    - Add short red comment lines in the margins and between columns.
  Include faint official seal impressions where appropriate.

TEXT_IN_IMAGE {
  Use real, correct Hanja only on the sheet. Do not invent or garble characters. Keep the amount small so every character renders cleanly.
  Place a Korean translation panel to the right of the sheet, using modern museum typography, correctly spelled Hangul, and short lines. Include:
    title: "시권 해석"
    "응시 시험: ____"
    "시제: ____" (Korean translation of the question)
    "답안 요지:" followed by 2 short lines
    "등급: ____ — ____" (the grade and what it means)
    "채점관 평:" followed by 2 short lines translating the red comments
    "결과: 급제 / 낙방" (show only the applicable result)
}

STYLE {
  Create a photorealistic archival photograph of a historical document on museum display, shot from directly above, with soft, even lighting and true-to-life ink textures.
  Use black ink with slight bleeding into the paper fibers; make the red ink vivid vermilion.
  Use a horizontal 4:3 aspect ratio.
}

AVOID {
  Any person or portrait; fake or garbled Hanja; horizontal Chinese text; Japanese or modern Chinese formatting; showing the examinee's real name; misspelled Hangul; long paragraphs on the panel.
