Perhaps the most shameful incident in Korean history is the indignity suffered at Samjeondo.
After being defeated by repeated Ching invasions, King Injo stepped out from the fortress where he took refuge in January 1637 and kneeled in surrender to the Ching emperor.
A reminder of the incident still remains: The monument of Samjeondo, forcibly erected at the order of the Ching ruler, is still standing in Seokchon-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul.

The palaces still standing in Seoul were built during the 500-year Joseon dynasty, beginning around the late 14th century.
The emperors built a string of palaces and monuments to their own greatness, and although the number left standing has diminished over time, the remainder will keep even the most ardent royal watcher busy for a few days.
They are all square, built on a north-south axis and are surrounded by high walls - the layout owes a great deal to Chinese geomancy.

After all, this is the person who once created a page entitled Korean anti-Japanism (since moved to Korean-Japanese disputes)!
Some of the his more notable edits have been of Taekwondo (since NPOV'd by another Wikpedian), Dangun (just NPOV'd by me), Hwarang (not really NPOV-able), Goguryeo (since NPOV'd by me), Samjeondo Monument (since NPOV'd by me), and Dispute over the name Sea of Japan (since NPOV'd by me) (and the accompanying Talk page).
Basically, his agenda is to cast Korea in as bad a light as possible (it seems) without actually saying anything wrong.
