역적의 손자가 왕이 된 기막힌 이야기 (KBS_1998.05.19.방송)

◼︎ On July 28, 1849, King Cheoljong, the Prince of Ganghwa, ascended the throne. King Cheoljong, the 25th king of Joseon, was born into a fallen royal family. His grandfather, Prince Eun-eon, was implicated in a treason plot and his father was exiled, leading to a tragic childhood. Known as "Ganghwa Lord," he farmed and was proclaimed king by the powerful Andong Kim clan when King Heonjong died without an heir. The Andong Kim clan sought to seize control of state affairs through the weak King Cheoljong, and despite controversy over his qualifications as a traitor, they supported him. Ultimately, Cheoljong reigned as a puppet king, living a miserable life amidst the maternal relatives' power politics and the devastation of the people's livelihood. #KoreanHistory #History #HistorySpecial #HistoryJournal Copyright ⓒ KBS.
