Kim Jua-guen (played by Baek Yoon-sik) appears in Feng Shui. Kim Jua-guen is the faction leader whose family seeks power through royal-tomb land and Feng Shui manipulation. His faction acquires land around Heolleung through intermediaries, drives farmers away, and secretly buries generations of ancestors among royal graves.
