From a socio-cultural perspective, the stability of Korea's Corruption Index tainted heavily with bribery allures us into a systematic survey of Goryeo Kingdom's bureaucratic corruption, particularly on the articles of bribery carried in Goryeosa. The result of this study were as follows: (1) the number of articles of bribery increased as the Kingdom neared its end, (2) the longer the reign of a king, the more articles of bribery, (3) the principal means of bribery were silver (or silver bottle) the use of which steadily decreased because of high inflation in the last period, (4) the purpose of bribery was largely personal gain or advancement and was fulfilled about two-thirds of the time, but (5) the punishment of bribed officials was minimal, if not non-existent. In a sense, the bribery in Goryeo Kingdom appeared to be an all-or-nothing game, which seems to reiterate even today.
