불법 반출돼 미국으로 흘러갔던 문정왕후 어보와 현종 어보가 문재인 대통령의 방미 전용기에 실려 2일 국내로 돌아온다.전용기가 도착하면 두 어보는 조선왕실 유물을 조사·연구하는 문화재청 국립고궁박물관으로 운반되며, 내달 열리는 특별전을 통해 일반에 공개된다.미국에서 돌아오는 문정왕후 어보(왼쪽)와 현종 어보 (사진=연합뉴스)종묘 정전과 영녕전에 봉안돼 있던 어보(御寶)는 왕과 왕비, 세자와 세자빈을 위해 제작된 의례용 도장으로 왕실의 정통성과 권위를 상징하는 유물이다. 이번에 환수된 어보는 한국과 미국 정부가 4년간의 공조를 통해 제자리를 찾게 됐다는 점에서 의미 있는 성과로 분석된다.문정왕후 어보는 명종 2년(1547) 중종의 계비인 문정왕후(1501∼1565)에게 '성렬대왕대비'(聖烈大王大妃)라는 존호(尊號, 덕을 기리는 칭호)를 올릴 때 만들어졌다. 가로·세로 각 10.1㎝, 높이 7.2㎝이며, 거북 손잡이가 달린 금보(金寶)다.현종 어보는 효종 2년(1651) 임금의 맏아들인
