Kim Chun became the new military ruler and shortly after that, Goryeo concluded a war with Mongols.
However, Kim Chun's power was much weaker than those of his predecessors, because his regime was sustained by a small number of sympathizers who coincide with the coup d'état.
Kim Chun continued to insist on the war with Mongols and in this context, he began to give power to his relatives in order to strengthen his power, led to corruption and resulted in violent clashes with a few supporters of the regime.
The new king, Wonjong of Goryeo was an opponent of Kim Chun and scholars who had insisted on peace with Mongolia gained power.
The next year, Im Yeon's attempt to replace King Wonjong was reversed by the crown prince with the help from the Mongol force.
