I don't know anything about this time period in China so imagine my surprise when I realized that Koke Temur and Chen Youliang are real people (I only knew them as characters from an wuxia series) Chen Youliang's descendants are also in Korea as well. Chen Youliang's son Chen Li, who was the 2nd emperor of the Chen Han dynasty, was sent to Korea along with Ming Sheng who I talked about in the previous page. Chen Li became the founder of the Yangsan Jin clan in Korea. The Chinese character Chen is pronounced Jin in Korean. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yangsan_Jin_clanen.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chen_Li_(emperor)Unlike the Myeongs who are all descended from Ming Sheng, not all Jins in Korea are descendants of Chen Youliang though. There is only 1 Myeong clan in Korea, but there are 6 Jin clans in Korea. Out of the 6 Jins, 3 of them have the same Chinese characters while the other 3 have different Chinese characters. Chinese character(陳) Yeoyang Jin clan - Founder is Jin Chonghu, who was a general that lived during Goryeo Emperor Yejong's reign. The majority of Korean Jins are from this clan. Guangdong Jin clan - Founder is Chen Yongsu, the grandson of Ming general Chen Lin who fought in Korea during the Imjin War. Chen Yongsu immigrated to Korea after Ming dynasty was destroyed by the Qing dynasty and started the Guangdong Jin clan. Guangdong is where Chen Lin's family is originally from in China. The Chinese character Chen is pronounced Jin in Korean as I said above. Yangsan Jin Clan - Descendants of Chen Li, the son of Chen Youliang as I said above. Punggi Jin Clan(秦) - Founder is Qin Biming, a Tang dynasty general who remained in Shilla after Shilla-Tang forces destroyed Baekje. The Chinese character Qin(秦) is pronounced Jin in Korean. Actress Jin Kiju is from this clan. Namwon Jin Clan(晉) - Founder is Jin Hamjo, a scholar who lived during Goryeo Emperor Hyeonjong's reign. Actor Jin Gu is his descendant. Seosan Jin Clan(眞) - Assumed to be the descendants of the Baekje nobility Jin clan. It is the smallest of all the Jin clans. Only 45 members remained as of 2015.
