His poems followed Mandang trend. ‘Seongsihwagi’ composed in late August 1803 vividly portrays the changed aspect of Seoul of that time. His will to awaken the people expressed through the writing is by far one of the best among other kings.

- Korean caption: 조선의 23대 국왕인 순조(純祖)의 시문집. 순조는 이름이 공(玜) 이고 자는 공보(公寶)이며, 순재(純齋)는 자호이다. 순조의 시(時)는 만당풍(晩唐風)을 써서 시정을 담아낸 특징을 보이며, 1803년 8월 하순에 쓴 ‘성시화기(城市畵記)’는 당시 서울의 번화한 면모를 생생하게 보여준다. 경세의 의지를 문장을 통해 표현하는 능력은 다른 어떤 국왕에 뒤떨어지지 않았던 것으로 평가된다.
