Dae Jo-yeong
Dae Joyeong (; or ; died 719) or Da Zuorong (), also known as King Go (; ; Chinese: Gao), established the state of Balhae, reigning from 699 to 719. Life Early life Dae Joyeong was the first son of general Dae Jung-sang, who was also known as Sari Geolgeol Jungsang () or Dae Geolgeol Jungsang (). Historical sources give different accounts of Dae Joyeong's ethnicity and background. Among the official dynastic history works, the ''New Book of Tang'' refers to Dae Joyeong and his state as Sumo Mohe (related to Jurchens and later Manchus) affiliated with Goguryeo.

The ''Samguk yusa'', a 13th-century collection of Korean history and legends, describes Dae as a Sumo Mohe lead ...
