Asia +Dynasty +1392 yielded:

Yi Dynasty

also called CHOSON DYNASTY, the last and longest-lived imperial dynasty 
(1392-1910) of Korea. Founded by General Yi Song-gye, who established the 
capital at Hanyang (present-day Seoul), the kingdom was named Choson after 
the state of the same name that had dominated the Korean peninsula in 
ancient times. But the regime is also frequently referred to as the Yi 
dynasty, after its ruling family.

Hope this helps :o)
