uijong of goryeo

king uijong of goryeo -lrb- 23 may 1127 -- 7 november 1173 -rrb- -lrb- r. 1146 -- 1170 -rrb- was the 18th monarch of the goryeo dynasty of korea .
he honored his advisors with many ceremonies but hated the warriors , often forcing them to participate in martial arts competitions for the entertainment of himself and the civil officials , as well as assigning them petty portions during land distributions .
he also was often drunk , further angering the warriors .
finally , in the autumn of 1170 , after constant discriminations , the rage of the military officials burst .
three warriors -lrb- jeong jung-bu , yi ui-bang , yi go -rrb- and others , started a military revolt , murdering the civil officials , deposing king uijong , and appointing a new king in his place .
he was preceded by injong and succeeded by myeongjong .
