Konishi was mercilessly executed in the aftermath of Sekigahara and his domain was awarded to Kiyomasa, bringing his total fiefdom to 540,000 koku.
Although the overall CV of Konishi's was good, his career didn't go as smoothly as it seemed; he had made a great diplomatic blunder by pretending to surrender to the Chinese Emperor just to get a ceasefire in his Korean campaign.
Konishi was lucky that he was only punished by being sent again to re-invade Korea -- in a socially mismatched duet with General Kato Kiyomasa, a zealous Nichiren Buddhist who hated Konishi and all things Christian and all foreigners.

Konishi confiscated all of the temple's territory and burned down many of the monks' houses, as well as the 49 branch temples in the area.

Kato held disdain for Konishi ever since his refusal to commit seppuku when captured, which in Kato's eyes, brought dishonor to Konishi, to himself, and to all samurai.

 The Korean adventure
A total of some 225,000 men were mobilised, with Nagoya (in Shikoku, not the modern city on Ise Bay) as the main and Tsushima as the advanced base; organisation was meticulous, and hundreds of craft, small and large, were assembled for transport—the one-time pirates of the Inland Sea found a new opening for their talents.
In the meantime, however, and almost simultaneously with Konishi's occupation of the capital, the fatal errors in Japanese planning were revealed: the lack of an effective supreme command in the field, Hideyoshi remaining at home, and above all the neglect of sea power.
By 7 June, with Konishi well on the road to Seoul, the main Japanese naval forces were scattered among the numerous off-shore islands west of Fusan, where Yi-sun fell upon them: by 10 July, in seven tactically beautiful actions, he had shattered their flotillas in detail, destroying at least 160 substantial vessels.
