[edit] mongol name

Excellent! Do you have a source for that? -- Visviva 15:47, 30 April 2006 (UTC)

This does seem to be confirmed by various sources including [1], although of course Korean sources do not provide a basis for judging the romanization... Adding to article. -- Visviva 08:29, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Assassination

From what I've read, King Gongmin was not assasinated by Yi In-im. In fact, he was killed by his enunch, Choi Man-Seng 최만생 and some young men he was recently having relations with. One of the young men, Hong Ryun(홍륜) had relations with one of Gongmin's concubines, which led to Gongmin's anger. So before Gongmin could kill him, Hong Ryun and the enunch killed Gongmin in his sleep. -- Darkstyx 08:31, 20 Jan 2007 (UTC)
