Life & career

Jeon Gyeong is presented as the founder of the Naju Jeon clan, a late-Goryeo figure counted as the 30th-generation descendant of the progenitor Jeon Seop, or as the 15th-generation descendant of Jeon I-gap. He is said to have served as Chief of the Seonggyungwan (Seonggyun jwaeju) under King Chungryeol and, for helping put down the rebellion of Jo Jeok, to have become a meritorious subject and been enfeoffed as Lord of Naseong (羅城君).

Details vary by source; please verify with your jokbo and primary records.

Founder of the Naju Jeon

Wikipedia gives Jeon Gyeong as the 30th-generation descendant of Jeon Seop, whereas Segye Ilbo and a genealogy institute count him as the 15th-generation descendant of Jeon I-gap. The Naju Jeon is described as a seat that split off from the Jeongseon Jeon.

Office and Title

He is said to have served as Chief of the Seonggyungwan under King Chungryeol (r. 1274-1308). The date of the Jo Jeok rebellion he helped suppress differs: one source gives 1332 for the suppression and 1334 for his enfeoffment, while Wikipedia gives 1341. We could not determine which is right.
