Injo Restoration
The Injo Restoration refers to a period in Korean history from 1623 to 1637, marked by the restoration of the Joseon Dynasty after a coup led by the Western faction. This political shift aimed to consolidate power and stabilize the government, which had been weakened by internal conflicts and external threats.
During the Injo Restoration, the new king, Injo, faced challenges such as invasions from the Manchu tribes. The period is significant for its attempts to strengthen the central authority and address the socio-political issues of the time, ultimately leading to the Manchu invasions and the fall of the Joseon Dynasty.
