King Gwanggaeto and his son
King Gwanggaeto is the person who had great achievements. He led Goguryeo’s
golden age. He was also very wise. He helped Shilla when they were attacked by Baekje
because he was motivated by his grandfather’s dad GoGukWonWang has been killed by
Baekje. Later he attacked Buyeo and attacked Yan China.
King Gwanggaeto was also called Damdeouk when he was young. When he
became a king they called him king young-Rak. This is one of the first Korean names for
a king in Goguryeo. This meant that he wasn’t afraid to battle with China anymore
because Goguryeo used China’s names of king.
King Jang-Su also led the golden age of Goguryeo and expanded more territories
then before and retrieved his great grandfather’s lost body and his great grandmother’s
body because Han China took the body away and tried to kill the Goguryeo’s king
GoGukWonWang by taking away his father and mother’s body.
I think that I want to know more about Goguryeo because they are very strong in
courage and is strong willed. My other reason is because they expanded lots of territory
in the north of the Korean peninsula. |
