As he was transparent and good at writing sentences, he left many of the works. However, as he was appointed as a main character who caused Gimyosahwa, he was blamed much by later generations. If he did not cause Gimyosahwa, he might as well be remembered as a character who is respected even more by later generations. What is Gimyosahwa?

Just like the ruling party and the opposition party in the present era, there were divided parties in Joseon Dynasty depending on political ideology they pursued.
