| Paek Nak-chun | 1960 – 1960 | under a year | ending not on record | |
| Ho Chong | 1960 – 1960 | under a year | ending not on record | |

| Yun Po-sun | 1960 – 1961 | 1 year | deposed, the article saysread from the ruler's own article |
4 rulers, 4 with terms dated as terms, covering 1960 – 1961. Only 1 years of the line are dated - too short for a median. 0 of 3 handovers irregular - a killing, a deposition, a rival claimant, a rising or a coup beside it. The violent-handover count is withheld: power changed hands so often that any rising falls beside one (exposure 1.00, limit 0.6). A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.
