Abstract

King Gongmin of Goryeo collectively appointed 415 meritorious people as contributors. And 62 people were given names of contributors. The first group was 37 contributors who followed the Yuan Dynasty in the first year of King Gongmin’s reign. King Gongmin was worried about changing the throne from the beginning of his throne. He appointed his subjects who knew well about the Yuan Dynasty’s imperial family and government as meritorious subjects. It was to strengthen their power. The second group is the 20 people who executed Gi-cheol in the 8th year of King Gongmin. King Gongmin tried to stabilize relations with Yuan after executing Ki-cheol, who was close to Yuan Dynasty. Because of this, the leaders were not rewarded. In the 8th year of King Gongmin’s reign, when Honggeonjeok tried to invade, King Gongmin appointed them as contributors. It was because they were forming a military command. The third and fourth are 358 people who defeated the suppression of Heungwangsa Temple and the invasion of the first and second Hong Geon-jeok in the 12th year of King Gongmin. When the Yuan decided to depose King Gongmin, the purpose was to secure loyal forces. The 62 contributing names are organized into five types.(Linked to the above four groups, Contributed to overcoming a national crisis, Show loyalty, Doing something special, Powerful man.)
