Why was Yi Sun-sin, who wiped out no more than 10,000 men, worshipped as a god by the Koreans?

Lee Sun-sin, a male, was born in 1545. Yi Sun-Shin was born in Seoul, South Korea, and when he was born he already had two older brothers in his family, and his father was poor but well educated. Yi Sun-Shin's father gave him this name because he wanted him to become a hero of the Korean nation and serve his country.? Sun-sin? means Shun's subordinate, which means that he wanted him to be an excellent subordinate of a good emperor. And Yi Sun-sin eventually lived up to his father's expectations and became an excellent general who was honored as a god by the Koreans for generations to come and received many awards and praises. He was a rare talent and made a lot of contributions to Korea.

The most famous case of Yi Sun-sin was sweeping the southern coast. In the less than one year that Yi Sun-sin served as the left naval division of Jeolla-do, the general, who was nearly fifty years old, had been fighting against the Nujin on the northern border, and he hated official corruption and gangsterism, which he considered to be detrimental to the nation's behavior and bad deeds. Because of this, this very good general has not been promoted, just a mediocre officer. And it was only when the court received the threat of Japan that it recognized the importance of defense and dropped Yi Sun-Shin to the south as the commander of the navy and proved how right the emperor's decision was.

Lee Sun-Shin proved himself in the south by being invincible in battle. In 1592, the day after the Japanese captured Seoul, Yi Sun-sin led his army out of Yeosu, his home port, and then reached the southern tip of Geogi Island and fought with the Japanese navy, and then defeated the Japanese navy without a single casualty or loss of battle, and gained a great victory. At that time, the news of the capture of Seoul was brought to the Korean government, and Yi Sun-sin was heartbroken and decided to go back to the base camp to wait for the order. Yi Sun-sin's victory made the court very excited and wanted to posthumously honor him, but Yi Sun-sin spoke out about the court's improper defense, which angered the important ministers and ended up in deep trouble.
