Yeokgwan from the Sayeokwoon has cultivated. Yuk-kwans were selected by appropriate educational institutions since they did not fall under Jap-gwa. However, in the latter term of the Koryo period, anyone could become a Yuk-kwan as long as he was fluent in Mongolian. Yuk-kwans were mostly of above the yang-in status. However, in the latter period, there were some cases where the chun-min class such as the children of ka-no or kwan-bi became a Yuk-kwan. This is due to the tendency of the nobilitys children to avoid the occupation, believing it is a degrading job. On the other hand, the Yuk-kwan position was highly favored by the yang-in and the chun-min since it could lead to a rise in their social status if ones ability as a Yuk-kwan is acknowledged. Yuk-kwans served the country by increasing efficiency in diplomatic dealings. After the Won intervention, their power grew substantially due to their good relationship with the Won and started participating in politics and had a significant influence. Some of Yuk-kwans of lowly birth managed to advance to high official positions and brought about a significant social status change in the Koryo society.
