Biography

Yeol Man-hwa served a general of Later Balhae (Later Bohai), after the fall of Balhae to the Liao dynasty. In 938, Yeol overthrew the ruling Dae clan and proclaimed himself as the king of the state of Jeongan, with the aid of Oh Je-hyeon (오제현; 烏濟顯) and the Oh clan. In 970, King Yeol Man-hwa sent tribute to the Song dynasty during the reign of Emperor Taizu. However, in 976, Yeol Man-hwa himself was overthrown by the Oh clan, by Oh Je-hyeon's descendant, Oh Hyeon-myeong (烏玄明,Wu Xuanming).
