During Joseon dynasty, where its Caste System required families to produce members that passed the National Service Exam at least every fourth generation to maintain their YangbanStatus[3], the Miryang Park Clan distinguished itself by producing numerous Gwageo exam selectees: 261 in the Literary Exam (문과) and 1125 in the Military Exam (무과)[4]. Although Korean Yangbans did not formally have hereditary military and literary families, Miryang PARK clan comes close to being a military clan, simply due to the majority of its Gwageo applicants passing the military exam and pursuing a military career throughout the Joseon dynasty[5].
In modern times, the chaebeolfamilies of Doosan Group and POSCOfounders are of the Miryang Park Clan.
