content: Marquis Kim Ok-kyun, late Yi court official was chief of kaehwa tang or the pro-Japanese reform party and chief architect of the 1884 progressives coup in Seoul. Kim was assassinated in 1894 at Shanghai. The portrait may have possibly been taken in Japan. Kim was one of the ten-man study group (sinsa yuramdan) the Korea govt. sent to Japan in 1881. Kim's frequent visits to Japan during the years 1881-1884 coincide partly with the period 1880-1882 during which Commodore Shufeldt [collector] made his visits to Japan.
