Rebel leader in the Joseon province of Pyeongan
Hong Kyŏngnae was a rebel leader in Pyeongan Province, Joseon in the early 19th century. He was born in Yonggang to the Namyang Hong clan. His background is uncertain. By some accounts, he was a fallen yangban. However, the best evidence is that he was an educated commoner and professional geomancer. He was known for leading a rebellion in Pyongan Province against the central government who were unhappy with their treatment by the central government and an oppressive de facto tax regime based on government-administered high-interest loans and perhaps by rivalries among yangban groups, but was killed in battle.
