Eugen,
Although they are relatively large, compared with average Korean horn bows, they are not quite the size of the yegoong. I'm trying to remember the name of the mid-size bow, but it escapes me at the moment. The bowyer, Geuk-hwan Park, made that type of bow around the same time he made a reproduction of the yegoong. Here are some pics of that type of bow, which I took at the same time I was taking pics of the yegoong.

The bows were solidly made. They looked capable of being shot to me, but that is just an impression. I picked them up and handled them. I had the impression that the more damaged bow might have been a military bow.
