Pyongyang Kim clan

The Pyongyang Kim clan is a Korean clan originating from what is now Pyongyang, North Korea. It is believed that Kim Dae Jin, a descendant of Gyeongsun of Silla, was its founder. However, the family records of the Joseon dynasty, cite Kim Yeo-ha, an early Joseon noble who served as governor of a county during the reign of King Taejong, to have founded the clan during the early 15th century. The most-recent record of the clan dates back to the 1930s and states that modern members of the clan live around Chorwon County, Kangwon-do, North Korea.
