I now understand why the chose the 2nd Goryeo-Khitan War period. (a.k.a. Korea-Liao War)

  1. The "rebellious" General was considered a hero despite his decision to rebel and assassinate his current king.

  2. The prince the General enthroned as Emperor of Goryeo was very successful in repelling the Khitan invasions.

This new Emperor started as a powerless emperor and then became very knowledgeable. In the 3rd Goryeo-Khitan War, he even appointed a politician as a General, and that politician-turned-General brought great victories for Goryeo despite his lack of military experience. (His political experience helped him become a great strategist?)

The emperor did not let anyone to use him as a puppet and truly cared for his people. He rose up and became a great king which brought peace and prosperity during his reign.

Another funny words that means differently in another .

The () word "namu" means "tree" or "wood".

In , it is the short form of the curse word "pang ina mo" or "pa ang ina mo" (which in English translates to "your mom is a c**t").

Of course, in Korean, you don't normally use words by itself. So there shouldn't be cases wherein there might be confusion. But if you got into a certain situation this happened, just explain what you meant. 😅 Otherwise, you'll hear a reply like, "namu rin" (something like, "your mom is a c**t too"). 😅😅
