Wanggeom-seong ( Korean: 왕검성) was the capital city of Gojoseon from 194 to 108 BC. It is also known as Wangheom-seong ( Korean: 왕검성; 王險城). [1]
One theory suggests the capital was around the modern city of Pyongyang based on the records of Samguk yusa and Samguk sagi. [2] [a] Some South Korean sources claim it was located somewhere around Liaodong (present China).
