Korean naval commander (1560–1597) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Park Jin (Korean: 박진; Hanja: 朴晉, 25 August 1560 – March 1597), was a Korean Joseon Dynasty Army general and politician. He was one of the Korean generals of the Imjin War.[1] Park came from the Miryang Park clan.
During the Imjin War, Park Jin fought to recapture the city of Gyeongju from the Japanese invaders. His first attack was repelled, but he returned with a mortar and fired a delayed-action bomb over the wall. The Japanese evacuated the city rather than defend it against such mortars.[2]
