This was the seal used to mark the issuing authority on the official documents by the Capital Guards Command (1882-1894). The Capital Guards Command was one of the newly established military facilities, and it was set up to strengthen the defense of the palace and the capital city after the Military Mutiny of 1882. Five modern Korean battalions were founded (military in charge of front, back, left, right, and separate sides), and the Capital Guards Command was established to handle the administration and finance of those troops.
