This writing shows the process of arranging a status for Hanyang to became a capital through transfer of the capital and king’s movement to another place for living during King Taejo ~ King Taejong in Joseon. First of all, this study gave attention on that political change and power structure after foundation of Joseon directly affected conflict relationship surrounding transfer to Hanyang. Most of governing class in the reign of Taejo wanted to stay in Gaegyeong but king had mission that he had to build new capital as a king who opened Joseon. New monarch actively utilized limited and exclusive characters of a capital. If he efficiently control governing class inside capital, it could be helpful in establishing political system in the early time of foundation of Joseon. Therefore, the location of capital became a decisive factor in establishment of future system. In the end, King Taejo proceeded with transfer to Hanyang as he originally thought and drew consensus of vassals through method of political operation of ‘joint discussion between ruler and minister’ centered on Dopyeonguisasa(Office of Joint Councilors). But after King Jeongjong came to throne, return of the capital to Gaegyeong was implemented and Dual-Capital system had been maintained until 1404(4th year of King Taejong’s reign). King Taejong wanted to return to Hanyang from his early years but objection was stronger than the reign of Taejo when transfer of the capital to Hanyang was made. Accordingly, King Taejong focused on strengthening authority and power of king rather than insisting on transfer of the capital. There was no need to enforce transfer of the capital. King Taejong received imperial patent and seal from Ming, China so that legitimacy of succession of throne was advocated. He appointed crown prince so that stability of succession of next throne was guaranteed. He opened a league to promise union between Gaeguk meritorious retainer, Jungsa meritorious retainer, and Jwamyeong meritorious retainer, loyalty for king so that cooperation between political powers was made. Since then, he proceeded with transfer of the capital. Ha-ryun who was in the core position of political power insisted on Muak but there was no rival for King Taejong who already made political stability period. Such a process of transfer of the capital in early Joseon is closely related to the process to build new political system as well as to solve political difficulties in early time of formation of government. On the other hand, Joseon dynasty could not disregard status of Gaegyeong which was still attractive as a capital. In the process of transfer of the capital, opinion of governing class to stick to existing capital system of Gaegyeong was identified. Furthermore, after transfer of the capital to Hanyang was decided, King Taejong carried out movement to Gaegyeong for living two times. Besides economic burden and administrative inconvenience, political and social confusion should be resigned because difficult decision of re-transfer of capital was already made. Officials and people followed king’s procession for movement to another place for living. Political argument about ‘Dual-Capital’system developed again became heated. But because King Taejong had absolute power exercised by the throne through abdication of the throne of two times, he aimed at political and economic effects through movement to Gaegyeong for living. In the first movement to Gaegyeong, for distribution of paper money, dual system of Hanyang and Gaegyeong was established. And in the second movement to Gaegyeong, sudden dethronement of crown prince and succession to the throne was made. In dethronement of crown prince, there was political aftermath but this was the first succession to the throne without upheaval since foundation of Joseon. During the reign of Taejo to Taejong, the status of the capital was not stable. The efforts to let Hanyang become a capital had been continued but there were most of governing class to support Gaegyeong, the old capital. But Hanyang was gradually growing in the midst of not only efforts of force to build system of Joseon through construction of capital, but also contrary expectation of force to maintain base of old capital.
