Outline

When Hodong, a child of Daemusin of Goguryeo, the third king of Goguryeo went Okjeo for hunting, he met Choi Ri (Korean: 최리; Hanja: 崔理) who has Chinese surname Choi and the king of Nakrang Kingdom (In the academic society of China and Japan, the king of Nakrang Kingdom is interpreted as same person as a governor of Lelang Commandery.[2][3]) and they decide to get welcome his daughter Princess of Nakrang as a wife of Hodong.[4] Daemusin of Goguryeo was planning to attack Nakrang Kingdom, and asked Hodong to destroy the drum and Oliphant that automatically notify people when enemy attack the country. Hodong send a messenger and ask Princess of Nakrang to destroy the drum and Oliphant.[5]

For Hodong, Princess of Nakrang destroyed the drum and Oliphant by a sword, after that Goguryeo attacked Nakrang Kingdom. Choi Ri could not be prepared for that attack because the drum and Oliphant were destroyed and he could not know Goguryeo’s invasion. He only knew that the drums and Oliphant were destroyed after Goguryeo’s aggression, but there’s nothing to do but surrender to Goguryeo. At that time, Choi Ri killed Princess of Nakrang who destroyed the drum and Oliphant.[5]

Hodong was a child of Hae clan (Korean: 해씨; Hanja: 解氏) who was a stepmother of Daemusin of Goguryeo, so, the empress of Goguryeo afraid if Hodong become a crown prince by pushing aside her own son. The empress gave a slanderous report that Hodong plans rebellion to Daemusin of Goguryeo.[6] After that Hodong committed suicide because if explain to that slander, he could leap to light of the empress’s iniquity and Daemusin of Goguryeo would get anxious about it.[5]
