The Miryang Dae clan (Korean: 밀양 대씨; Hanja: 密陽大氏) is a Korean clan. The founder is Dae Jung-sang.
History[edit]
The founder of the Miryang Dae clan is Dae Jung-sang. In 698, his son Dae Jo-yeong founded the kingdom of Balhae. When Balhae fell to the Liao dynasty, a son of Balhae's last king Dae Inseon, Dae T'ak (대탁; 大鐸) led a group of refugees to Goryeo and settled down in Miryang, beginning the founding of the Miryang Dae clan.[1]
The first ancestor recorded in the genealogy was Dae T'ak (대탁; 大鐸), who served as the Minister of Personnel. His son was Dae Tŏk-se (대덕세; 大德歲) who held a government office during the Joseon dynasty and for his service to the country, was enfeoffed as the Lord of Miryang (밀양군; 密陽君). His son Dae Mun-gi (대문기; 大文記) served as the Chief Magistrate of Hanseong (한성판윤; 漢成判尹). Other prominent members of this clan were: Dae Chung-t'aek (대중택; 大重澤) who served as ch'ŏm-chijungch'ubusa (첨지중추부사; 僉知中樞府事) and Dae Kuk-ŏn (대국언; 大國彦), who served as the Minister of Revenue (호조판서; 戶曹判書).[1]
According to the 1985 South Korean census, there were 499 members of the Miryang Dae clan, from 115 households.[2] In the 2000 South Korean census, the population decreased to 492 members, but the number of households increased to 162.[3]
