Jinwidae

Jinwidae (Korean: 진위대; Hanja: 鎭衛隊) was an organization of the Imperial Korean Army established in September 1895 by Gojong of Korea when he knew that Hullyeondae was part of the assassination of Empress Myeongseong.

[1] Jibangdae, which comprised an old-style army, joined Jinwidae in September 1900.

[3] However, after Russo-Japanese War ended with the victory of Empire of Japan, Jinwidae was shrinking in Numbers.

When Siwidae was dismissed and the Battle of Namdaemun happened, this news was told to soldiers of Jinwidae.

With the Righteous army, much Jinwidae personnel fought against Japan.
