Buyeo is believed to have risen from the areas of Gojoseon in the 2nd century BC. The founding date is difficult to estimate, but Buyeo was known to China by the Warring States Period, bordering Yan.

The records of its founding conflict: Chinese records say it was founded by Dongmyeong (東明, 동명), arriving from the north. Korean records say it was founded in 239 BC by King Hae Buru. King Hae Buru moved his capital to the east under unknown circumstances, and the end result was the formation of Bukbuyeo under Haemosu. Korean records seem to indicate that either: 1. Buyeo later became known as East Buyeo when North Buyeo separated from it, or 2. the original Buyeo was conquered or replaced by Haemosu, when it became sometimes known as North Buyeo.

It attacked Eastern Han again in 167 because of trade frictions.

When Bukbuyeo's 4th Dangun Go Uru of Bukbuyeo died, his brother Hae Buru succeded him and became the 5th Dangun of Bukbuyeo until he got into political and military conflicts with Go Dumak, who was a member of the royal family. A power struggle occured and resulted in the victory of Go Dumak and the fleeing of Haeburu to Gaseopwon, where he established Dongbuyeo. Haeburu submitted to Bukbuyeo to avoid conflicts with the kingdom and its 5th Dangun, Go Dumak of Bukbuyeo.

According to the Samguk Sagi, Hae Buru found a golden frog-like child under a large rock. Hae Buru named the child Geumwa, meaning golden frog, and later made him crown prince.

Jolbon

Some Korean records name a “Jolbon Buyeo” (卒本夫餘, 졸본부여), apparently referring to the incipient Goguryeo or its capital city. Jolbon Buyeo was a continuation of Bukbuyeo during the reign of its 5th Dangun Go Dumak of Bukbuyeo. After the death of Go Dumak Dangun in 60 BCE, Go Musu of Bukbuyeo rose to the throne to become the 6th Dangun of Bukbuyeo. After ruling for two years, Go Musu gave Jolbon Buyeo to Jumong, who was also a direct descendant of Bukbuyeo's founder Haemosu.

Under attack

At the end of Eastern Han, Gongsun Du, a Chinese warlord in Liaodong, supported Buyeo to counter Xianbei in the north and Goguryeo in the east. After destroying the Gongsun family, the Kingdom of Wei sent Wuqiu Jian to attack Goguryeo. A squad of the third expeditionary force led by the Governor of the Xuantu commandery was welcomed by Buyeo.

Fall

A remnant of Buyeo seems to have lingered around Harbin under the influence of Goguryeo. Buyeo paid tribute once to Northern Wei in 457, but otherwise seems to have been controlled by Goguryeo. Goguryeo and Buyeo were under attack by the rising Wuji (Mohe, 勿吉, 물길) in 494 and the Buyeo court moved into Goguryeo.

In the 1930's, Chinese historian Jin Yufu developed a linear model of descent for the people of Manchuria and northern Korea, from the kingdoms of Buyeo, Goguryeo, and Baekje, to the present Korean nationality.
