He had the capital moved to Hanyang during the fourth year of his reign (1395). Its name, literally meaning great fortune, originated with a phrase of Sigyeong (Book of Songs), quoted by Jeong Do-jeon, an eminent scholar in the Joseon Dynasty: I've already drunk and have been full with virtue, so I will help you get great fortune in my late year as a man of virtue. Mangyeongjeon, one of the buildings in Gyeongbokgung Palace, was destroyed when the palace burned down during the Japanese invasions of Korea, and was rebuilt on the north side of Jagyeongjeon during the restoration work under King Gojong. When a fire broke out at Changdeokgung Palace in 1917, Mangyeongjeon was also demolished.
