  • ... that the Empire of Japan turned a Korean royal cemetery into a golf course at what is now Hyochang Park? Source: "Hyoch’ang Park’s history began during the Chosŏn era as royal graves for Munhyoseja—the first son of Chŏngjo, the 22nd king of Chosŏn—and his mother, Ŭibinsŏngssi. ... First, there was a movement to turn Hyoch’ang-won into a park by the Japanese because the place was well landscaped and had a pine forest. They began to use it as a space in the city for rest and leisure, and even set up a golf course (1921–1924) because of the hilly nature of the tomb area." [1]
