It is still moving to visit Gyeongju today and stand in front of the majestic tombs of Queen Seon Deok who started the three-Han unification with general Kim Yushin and that of her nephew Chunchu who completed the unification as King Muyeol. It tells the story of key historical figures in a (the) most important moment in Korea's entire history: the unification of the three kingdoms of Silla, Paekche and Koguryo under Silla that was the most sophisticated and technologically most advanced of the three kingdoms, in particular in metal work.
