Excellent narrative and storytelling on scantly covered periods of Korea history. KUDOS!!! Keep up the good work!

This is very good and I can tell the podcaster has a love for Korean History. However this podcast doesn’t start at the beginning of Korean History but with the beginning of the Choe Military government during the Goryeo Dynasty.

Very Good

1219 CE: Choe U

The Mongols enter the peninsula ostensibly to rid it of the Khitan. It's a brief honeymoon period until the Mongols force Goryeo into its suzerainty. The relationship rapidly deteriorates from there. It’s a short period in time, just 16 years from 1218-1231, but it’s chock full of geopolitics. Not so much battle scenes, which is in the next episode, but plenty of diplomatic intrigue and a little spy craft thrown in. I’m excited, and I know you are, too.
