List of janggi variants

Many variants of janggi have been developed over the centuries. A few of these variants are still regularly played, though none are nearly as popular as janggi itself.

Gwangsanghui

Gwangsanghui is an 18th-century janggi variant. It was recorded in Noeyeonjip which was written by Nam Yuyong.

Sanjangjanggi is an janggi variant with an unusual rule. In sanjangjanggi, the king can escape check only by capturing the checking piece with the king in the next turn. Thus, double check is an automatic loss for the side with the checked king since the king cannot capture both checking pieces in a single move.
