The Phoenix King was the Western title given to the ruler of the Kingdom of Great Joseon, the last royal dynasty of Korea. Traditionally, Korean kings and emperors saw the majesty and power of the phoenix as divine, and often favored this mythical animal as a symbol of their supreme right to rule.
The phoenix is a mythical bird which turns to ashes on dying and is reborn from the ashes. This ability of the phoenix to rise again from its ashes implies its immortality. In some legends the new phoenix is believed to be the offspring of the dead phoenix. Some stories depict the phoenix as having the magical ability to transform into human beings.
