Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Isabu (Korean: 이사부; Hanja: 異斯夫) was a military general and politician of Silla during the 6th century. According to Samguk Sagi, he is the fourth generation descendant of Naemul of Silla.[1] He was also known as Taejong. He is best remembered today for his role in subjugating the island nation of Usan-guk. Usan-guk is the modern-day Ulleungdo, an island located in Sea of Japan (East Sea).[2] There is a dispute regarding his surname, as his family name is written as Kim in the Samguk Sagi.[3] He was the 4th generation descendant of King Naemul, which also provides direct proof that his family name was Kim. But in Samguk Yusa, his name is Park I-Jong (朴伊宗).
