- In spring 538, King Seong of Baekje moved the capital from Ungjin (Gongju) to Sabi (Buyeo) and changed the state's name to "Nambuyeo."
- The king reorganized the governing system, restructuring 22 central offices (12 inner and 10 outer) along with a system of 5 departments and 5 regions.
- Scholars are divided: most view the name change as a means of securing legitimacy, while others see it as a temporary change; the next episode covers the Battle of Gwansanseong.
