Wanggeom-seong (Korean: 왕검성) was the capital city of Gojoseon from 194 to 108 BC. It is also known as Wangheom-seong (Korean: 왕검성; 王險城).[1]

Conflicting opinions about its location

One theory suggests the capital was around the modern city of Pyongyang based on the records of Samguk yusa and Samguk sagi.[2] [a] Some South Korean sources claim it was located somewhere around Liaodong (present China).

Notes

  1. ^ Samguk yusa writes that the Book of Wei writes Dangun set the capital of his kingdom in asadal, and also quotes from a lost history book called gogi(古記) that Dangun selected Pyongyang as the nation's capital.
