This book is an annotated translation of the *Byeongji* (Treatise on Military Affairs) in the *Goryeosa* (History of Goryeosa). To put it more simply, it is a detailed commentary on the military system of Goryeo. Therefore, this book serves as both a resource and a guide for understanding the Goryeo era. Oddly enough, the annotated *Goryeosa* series was not published by a single publisher but rather by various independent publishers such as Gyeongin Munhwasa, Sinseowon, Iljogak, and the
Lee Ki-baek et al.: Annotated Translation of the Military Affairs Section of Goryeosa
“Annotated Translation of the Military Affairs Section of the *History of Goryeo*” is a compilation of the annotated translation of 'Volume 1 of the Military Affairs Section' left by Lee Ki-baek (1924–2004), a representative Korean historian who devoted his heart and soul to the study of the *History of Goryeo*, as well as the annotated translations of 'Volume 2 of the Military Affairs Section' and 'Volume 3 of the Military Affairs Section' completed by his disciple Kim Yong-seon (Professor of History at Hallym University). Adhering to the principle of strict literal translation, it remains faithful to the original text, yet for parts where historical sources are scarce, it traces the military system of the Goryeo Dynasty through meticulous comparison with other articles within the *History of Goryeo* or other historical texts such as the *Summary of the History of Goryeo*.
