Political Trends of Hong Bog Won Clan in the Period of Mongol Domination

Journal Title: International Journal of Korean History - Year 2005, Vol 9, Issue 1

Abstract

The Mongol invasion, which occurred in the period of the military regime in Koryo, as well as the period of Yuan domination and interference that followed the Koryo-Mongol wars and reconciliation, constitute one of the most important stages in the history of Korea. The ordeals cost a terrible loss of human lives and brought a gigantic damage to Koryo’s economy, but at the same time the military regime was overthrown, significant changes in socio-economic structure were brought about and new social forces came to the Koryo’s political scene, adopting the new ideology of Neo-Confucianism which itself came to Korea through the Yuan empire.
