Who is "Kwang Gae To"? Where does the company name come from?
the Grand King Kwanggaeto(375~413) of the Koguryo Kingdom

the famous
Kwang-Gae-Toh-Wang, the 19th King of the Koguryo Dynasty, who regained all the
lost territories including the greater part of Manchuria. King Kwanggaeto (meaning "broad expander of territory")
was born in 374 and ascended to the throne in 391, at the age of just
seventeen, to become the 19th king of the Goguryeo Dynasty. He ruled over
Goguryeo at the time in Korea's history known as The Three Kingdoms, so called
because during this time the Korean peninsula was constantly being fought over
by the three Goguryeo, Silla and Baekje dynasties. He is sometimes referred to
as Great King Yeongnak, after the era name selected by him.
He expanded Goguryeo's territories far into the Korean peninsula by advancing
southward at the expense of the Baekje dynasty to occupy the north of the Han
River, and occupied Manchurian territory to the east of Liaohe. On his death in
413, at just 39 years of age, Goguryeo ruled everything between the Sungari and
Han Rivers. This gave it control over two thirds of what is now modern Korea as
well as a large part of Manchuria. In addition, the chieftains of Silla
submitted to the northern kingdom's authority in 399 to receive protection from
Japanese raids. Only Paekche continued to resist Koguryo domination during this
period, thereby preventing what would have been the first recognised unification of the Korean peninsula
. 
During his reign, King Kwanggaeto conquered 65 walled cities and some 1,400
villages, in addition to aiding Silla when it was attacked by the Japanese. In
392 he built nine Buddhist temples in Pyongyang. His accomplishments are
recorded on a monument which was erected in 414 in southern Manchuria.
