Park Won-gye (1282-1349) was a late-Goryeo civil official whose seat is given as Yeonghae by both the Encyclopedia of Korean Culture and Wikipedia. He is the only Goryeo exam graduate Wikipedia's Yeonghae Park entry names. His grandfather was Park Mun-gyu and his father Park Gwan, and he studied under Gwon Bo, a pupil of An Hyang. His death year is 1349 in the Encyclopedia and 1348 in Wikipedia.
He passed the civil examination in 1301 (27th year of Chungnyeol), the same year as Yi Je-hyeon. He served as registrar and record-keeper of Jeonju and then as probationary Gyogam of the Classics. While King Chungseon stayed in Yan-jing (Beijing) under the Yuan he is said to have attended him as a reader of the Yemun-gwan.
In 1335, as Jangnyeong, he is recorded as having signed an appointment document that a fellow censor, Sin Gun-pyeong, had refused, and was criticized as timid in the confusion of personnel administration. He later rose to Jipui, served as Gangneung-do Jonmusa and then Jeonbeop Panseo, and in 1348 became Ihak Dogam Panssa. The sources cited are the Goryeosa, Mogeun mungo and Goryeo myeonghyeon jip.
After passing in 1301 he served in Jeonju and as probationary Gyogam. His attendance on King Chungseon in Yuan as a reader of the Yemun-gwan reads as a sign of royal confidence.
In 1335, amid a dispute over appointments, he signed a document his colleague Sin Gun-pyeong had refused and was called timid. This is the only evaluative remark in the Encyclopedia entry.
The mid-founder Park Myeong-cheon is also said to have been Jeonbeop Panseo but was a different man; Park Won-gye is the official recorded in the Encyclopedia.
