Mythical origins[edit]
The mythical founder of the Buyeo kingdom was Hae Mo-su, the Dongmyeong of Buyeo which literally means Holy King of Buyeo. After its foundation, the son of heaven (Hae Mo-su Hangul: 해모수; Hanja: 解慕漱) brought the royal court to his new palace, and he was proclaimed to be King.[citation needed]
Jumong is described as the son of Hae Mo-su and Lady Yuhwa (Hangul: 유화부인; Hanja: 柳花夫人) who was the daughter of Habaek (Hangul: 하백; Hanja: 河伯), the god of the Amnok River or, according to an alternative interpretation, the sun god Haebak (Hangul: 해밝).[1][2][3][4][excessive citations]
