The whole Buyeo bunch is from outside the peninsula. If we can at least partially trust SIma Qian and his Shiji, though, he describes the tattoed, 'mountain-men' natives of the peninsula as very open to outsiders, and if I recall well, he fleetingly mentions that refugees from nomadic succession/power struggle turmoils in the north would often find refugee among the peninsular natives - if this is true, there were some old interconnections. That said, I do consider Goguryeo to be one of the major ancestors of Koreans, because Wang Geon, whom I consider the actual unifier of the peninsula (and by unifier I mean he beat down everyone else to pulp), was of Goguryeo heritage- thus the name GOryeo for his newfound state.

Of course, Rusty, this is a light-hearted introduction to the topic, not academic research!:) Making a short video about possible Buyeo migrations and interconnections with the bulk of tribes and clans we call 'Mahan', trying to analyze the mythemes of sons leaving to establish their own kingdoms with a handful of followers etc would never fit into the intended format of these videos.
