The History of Goryeo exemplifies the period in its evaluation of the reign of one of the kings of the military regime, Sinjong:
Sinjong was put upon the throne by Ch'oe Ch'ung-hŏn, and all matters of life and death, decisions to accept or to reject, were in Ch'oe's hands. Sinjong stood above his subjects holding only empty authority. Alas, he was nothing but a puppet.[1]
Assassinated Chong Chung-bu and his family. Kyong Tae-sung tried to restore the civilian government. But Myeongjong, who regarded him as violating on royal power, hated him. Consequently, Kyong Tae-sung failed to restore the civilian government, but historians of the Joseon period did not consider him as traitor unlike the other military rulers.
