The location of Jinpo(鎭浦) in the famous Jinpo-Daecheop (Jinpo Great victory) in 1380 has not been illuminated despite of the long debate between two sides of assertors ; one for Gunsan(群山), the other for Seocheon(舒川). The major reason for this seems to be in the weakness in the empirical method for any of them. It is needless to say that Jinpo-Daecheop should be treated only as a problem historically happened in the Koryo period therefore it should be investigated above all based on the materials of Koryo period. For this purpose firstly the author by the contrastive analysis of the many Jinpos in the Dongguk-Yeoji-Seunglam which are complicated and liable to lead to misunderstanding, could get down to the Hansan-Yimpi(閑山-臨陂) Jinpo Living Area which seems to reflect the facts of Koryo period. Secondly the author argued that Jinpo in Daedong-Yeojido(The Great Map of the East) came to be established in Joseon period, Naripo(羅里浦) in the map which was the base of the Old Jinseong-Granary(古鎭城倉) is just the original Jinpo in the Koryo period. The Old Jinseong-Granary had to be moved to the mountain area due to the severe Japanese pirate’s offense since 14th century. The secret story of moving Granary from river base to the mountain area can be read in the The Record of Marine Transportation in Yongan Castle(龍安城漕轉記) by Kwon-geun. From the perspective of the east asian historical environment, moving the Old Jinseong-Granary, which has been kept over 400 years since the founding of Koryo Dynasty, from river to the mountain unexpectedly for the common sense, was not only from the attack of the Japanese pirates but also from the influence of new policy of Ocean Blockade by Ming Dynasty who became the new political power of the Chinese world in place of Yuan dynasty in 1368. The location of Jinseong-Granary is related not only to the rise and fall of the Koryo Dynasty but also to the cataclysm of the 14th century East Asian history. .
