Hello,

'bada Janggi' is a freeware with which you can play a Korean chess game
against a computer.
It runs on PC with windows 3.1 or above with 1 M ram

It uses usual janggi rules except that
it does not recognize 'bik jang' (= faced  Kings)

Downloading link is here

a Quick and dirty manual by me is :

F5 : New game
F7 : load a saved game
F8 : save a game
Alt+F4 : Exit

P.S. 
Its author calls it  'bada janggi'
as he was a college student near a 'bada' (=Ocean).
In my understanding, he went to 'Busan University'
