Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox Korean name Шаблон:Goguryeo monarchs King Gogugwon of Goguryeo (?–371, r. 331–371)[1] was the 16th king of Goguryeo, the northernmost of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. He was the son of King Micheon and Lady Ju.[1]
Goguryeo faced devastation by the Murong Xianbei people who attacked Goguryeo. Hwando was destroyed again by them in 341. Buyeo was also destroyed by the Xianbei in 346.[2]
The reign of Gogukwon suffered severely from continuous foreign invasions, not only those of Chinese forces including Xianbei but also of Baekje, southwestern part of Korean peninsula. Particularly, the Xianbei state of Former Yan invaded the capital in 342, capturing Queen Ju, the mother of Gogukwon and his concubines and also digging up the corpse of his father, Micheon. Since the capital was thoroughly destroyed, Gogukwon firstly constructed Guknae seong as an alternative fortress in northern sphere[3] and temporarily moved the capital to Pyongyang, present-day capital of North Korea.[4] While he could get back the corpse of his father, it took about 13 years for his mother to return to Goguryeo.[1]
In 369, Gogukwon personally led expedition of more than 20,000 troops.[5] Without success, Geunchogo's son Geungusu overtook, counterattacked and killed Gogugwon in battle, at Pyongyang Castle, the only ruler of Goguryeo to die on a battlefield.[1] He was buried in Gogugwon.
