The Siege of Suncheon was an unsuccessful Korean and Chinese Allied Forces attempt to capture Suncheon Japanese Castle late in the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592–1598).

Siege

The allied army attacked on 19 October 1598. Initially they attempted to negotiate Konishi Yukinaga in a ruse, but it failed when their cannons fired too early, sending them back into the fortress. The allies proceeded to bombard them for three days.{{sfn|Hawley|2005|p=528}}

Chen Ling and I Sunsin attempted to land but were driven back by Japanese gunfire. They gave up on 21 October.{{sfn|Hawley|2005|p=528}}

Eventually the land and naval forces conducted a joint attack on 31 October. Unfortunately the land assault failed to move past the first screen of defenses. After three attempts the attack was called off.{{sfn|Hawley|2005|p=531}}

On 1 November the allied fleet bombarded the fortress, but a number of ships got stuck in the shallows and were attacked. They lost 39 ships.{{sfn|Hawley|2005|p=531}}

I Sunsin continued his naval assault the next day but nothing came of it. The siege was lifted on 2 November.{{sfn|Hawley|2005|p=531}}
