A project on researching the scientists of the Joseon Dynasty (Korea) has been carried out by the authors in the last decade by focusing mainly on the officials of the Gwansang-gam, the Bureau of Astronomy and Meteorology. This paper presents research that relies on the 1759 Seongbyeon Deungrok (Compilation of Daily Observational Records of Celestial Events) of the Gwansang-gam, and reviews the records of observations and observers of Comet IP/Halley during its 1759 apparition. This record includes a series of archival sketches of the comet. In order to describe this work, the Seongbyeon Deungrok is first introduced, and then the observations of Comet 1P/Halley in the 1759 Deungrok are presented. The observers on duty each night during this series of observations from 1 to 14 April 1759 are also introduced, and there is a brief biographical investigation of five hereditary astronomers who made important contributions at the Gwansang-gam during the mid-eighteenth century, both as observers and calendrical researchers.
