The international exchange of both countries in the age of King Chungseon that has been checked so far is generally understood only in the position of hostile relation through war or the intervening period of Yuan. Investigating such recognition in other aspect, the relation of both countries is generally realized in terms of mutual positive exchange of politics, society and culture in this period. Referring to development of historic exchange of modern Korea and Mongolia to check Korea and Mongolia in this aspect, the author determined to investigate the necessity and merit/demerit of Koryo and Mongolia on the basis of King Chungseon. The specific research method for this research is as follows. First, the age background of history of both countries is investigated. The process of Mongolia and Korea countries including federation, war relation and the enhancement of the age of Koryo, both countries were in difficult relation and in the most active exchange in this age. However, the peculiarity of relation between Koryo and Mongolia, specifically, the relation between Koryo and Mongolia in the age of Koryo for characteristics of matrimonial relation and national position of royal families of both countries can be understood only as unstable relation of war and intervention of Yuan to people. At first, both countries started from the mutually amicable relation of federation through joint operation to annihilate Georan. However, the relation of both countries was interrupted when Mongolian envoy was slain on his way to fatherland. Further, the accident gave rise to war between both countries. After war, both countries realized matrimony between royal family as the factor to conclude enhance and federation. Koryo and Mongolia could stabilize the unstable relation through matrimonial relation. The marriage between royal family of both countries maintained the relation of both countries in special form, while considering the interest of both countries. Second, the author checked relation of both countries through King Chungseon. As the first king of mixed blood of Mongolia and the grandchild of Sejo, King Chungseon exerted strong politic power in both countries of Koryo and Yuan. King Chungseon had peculiar position, actively accepting the custom and system of Yuan. Namely, King Chungseon controlled relation of Koryo-Yuan with such politic power. The specific chronicle, his enthronement and enthrone protocol of King Chungseon shows the dual figure of Koryo and Mongolia. As King Chungseon was re-enthroned, Koryo further depended on Mongolia. The king even stayed in Yuan during most of reign to rule the country at distant place.
