AB - This paper aims to search how Wang family, the previous royal power, was treated and disposed after the establishment of Joseon and the setting of this situation. For this purpose, I examine the procedure and cause of the accession of Taejo (first king of Joseon), search the raising discussion for the disposal of Wang family and its course and arrange the application and development of discussion for eternal extinction of Wang family which reflected decision based in great cause.
The accession of Taejo was justified insufficiently, because King Gongyang (Gongyangwang) who ascended to the throne by Taejo himself should be dethroned for it. Taejo and his supporting power looked for the disposal of Wang family to overcome this problem. There were two possible ways. One was the neglecting feudality accompanying memorial ceremony in which the ruler of the previous dynasty was invested as feudal lords in the specific region with his wandering people and allowed to hold memorial ceremony for his ancestors. Another was discussion for eternal extinction of Wang family in which the previous royal power was the source of disaster and revolt and should be eradicated and put to death.
Taejo treated Wang family with favor after his accession. He invested them as feudal lords and allowed to hold memorial ceremony and live in their desired region. However, his supporting power insisted that Wang family should be eradicated and put to death, as they completed restoration by killing King U(Uwang) and King Chang(Changwang). Finally, Taejo accepted discussion for putting to death and eternal extinction. There was Gapsuljiju in 1394. The discussion for eternal extinction of Wang family was ceased with the order of Taejong in which the surviving posterity of Wang family could live securely with their occupation. It was concluded in establishing Sunguijeon, the shrine for Goryeo dynasty.
