Profile
One of the most famous generals of the Goryeo Dynasty, Cheok Jun-gyeong took part in multiple campaigns against the Jurchen Invasion. Private armies played a pivotal role during Goryeo Yejong's ascension to power and Cheok Jun-gyeong, who came from such a background, came to earn significant trust from the monarch. Cheok Jun-gyeong soon became a part of Goryeo Yejong's military retainer. He took part in the campaigns against the Jurchens with a string of victories with such impressive swordsmanship as to inspire legends that have lasted until today, and was appointed to a moderately senior official position. Subsequently, the Jurchens arrived in Yeongju at the head of 20,000 cavalry and announced an offer of a duel, which Cheok Jun-gyeong accepted at great personal risk. He exited the safety of the besieged city and won the duel, returning a hero. Goryeo Injong promoted him to a position equivalent to a local minister of finances in the year 1144. Unfortunately, he contracted severe gangrene in his back after a month, and passed away soon after in Guzhou.
