Description

The Siege of Haengju took place on February 12, 1593 during the 1592-1598 Japanese invasion of Korea. Approximately 3,000 Korean defenders led by general Kwon Yul successfully repelled more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers. Together with the Siege of Jinju in 1592 and the Battle of Hansan Island, it is considered the greatest Korean victory during the seven years of war.
