Qing invasion of Joseon
1636 invasion of Korea by Manchu China
Qing invasion of Joseon
The Qing invasion of Joseon (Korean: 병자호란; Hanja: 丙子胡亂) occurred in the winter of 1636 when the newly established Manchu-led Qing Empire invaded the Joseon Kingdom of what is now Korea, establishing the former's status as the hegemon in the Imperial Chinese tributary system and formally severing Joseon's relationship with the Han-led Ming dynasty. The invasion was preceded by the Later Jin invasion of Joseon in 1627. The invasion resulted in a Qing victory. Joseon was forced to establish a tributary relationship with the Qing, as well as to cut ties with the declining Ming. The crown prince of Joseon and his younger brother were taken as hostages, but they came back to Joseon after a few years. One of the two later became King Hyojong of Joseon. He is best known for his plan for an expedition to the Qing.
