The Imo Incident ("Imo gullan" in Korean) was a military mutiny occurred in Korea on July 23, 1882 as opposed to Gojong of Korea's increasing support for reform and modernization and to his support for Japanese military service.[1] It is also called Imo Mutiny[2] or Jingo Incident (Jingo Jihen) in Japanese.
Later, Heungseon Daewongun, father of the king played a leading role in the incident.[3][4] Japanese legation and Changdeok Palace were assaulted by the Korean Army clique. 13 Japanese in total including Horimoto Reijo (堀本禮造)[5] and some of Min clans were killed by them. Hanabusa Yoshimoto (花房義質), Japan Minister to Korea and all his aides fled to Incheon[6] and were rescued by a British ship when they were drifting with a small boat on the sea.[4][7] Both China and Japanese government dispatched troops.[1] The Qing general, Yuan Shikai quashed the incident and Daewongun was abducted by his troops.[4]
