The ''Byeolgigun'' (Korean: 별기군, "Special Skills Force" or "Special Army") was the first modernised military force of Korea. First conceived in 1876, it was formed 1881 and trained by Japanese officers led by Horimoto Reijo, military attaché at the Japanese legation. It received better treatment than the old Korean Army, whose soldiers had their salaries delayed. This led in 1882 to the Imo mutiny, in which soldiers rioted and Horimoto Reijo was killed. ==Sources== *Djun Kil Kim. ''The History of Korea'', 2nd ed.
