OK so I'm trying to think historically between the two and i'm confused. i think I got the AOW history confused at the end. I thought that historically the mongols took over korea and that's how choi died. when i tried to find things on the internet they say that there has been an emperor and that the chosen dynasty lasted until 1910. then someone said that the mongols reigned until the 1500's which would put us around admiral yi (1545?). sooooooo confuuuuuused! Can anyone send in the right direction of a site or a book or just give me a brief! All the site's I have seen do not have any familiar names at all so i'm lost.
Thank you! Go Yanks!

AOW timeline is between 1170 to 1219 when choi choong hon dies. Choi's son Woo then takes control over. Woo grandson, Choi Ui, is the one who is in charge when the mongols come and cause havoc. So it's Choi Choong Hon great-grandson that is in trouble with the mongols.
In 1231, the mongols invaded Koryo and it lasted up to 1392 when a Korean general, Yi, Song-gye came and formed the Yi Dynasty, or the Choson dynasty. The Immortal Yi Soon Shin is in the choson dynasty which was in rule until the begining of the 20th century.
If you want more detail on what was going on during Yi Soon Shin time, I'm sure someone else would fill you in.
