In 1575 (the 8th year of the reign of King Seonjo), he came into conflict with Kim Hyo-won, a rising sarim, and split into the East and West parties, marking the beginning of party strife and the beginning of party politics in the Joseon Dynasty. Sim Ui-gyeon's party was the Hunku faction, known as Seo-in, and Kim Hyo-won's party was known as Dong-in. After that, despite the mediation of Yi Yul-gok, the two parties continued to fight fiercely for power. However, in 1575, Dong-in came to rule, and Sim Ui-gyeon was dismissed.
