원나라 황실을 장악한 고려 여인 (KBS_2001.09.01.방송)

Lady Gi of Goryeo was taken to the Yuan Dynasty as a tribute woman and began her life as a court lady serving tea. However, leveraging her intelligence, the favor of Emperor Shun, the support of eunuch factions of Goryeo origin, and the birth of the Crown Prince, she rose to the position of Empress of the Yuan Empire. Empress Gi seized immense financial and political power based in the Jajeongwon and influenced the spread of Goryeo culture, known as Goryeo-yang, throughout the Yuan Dynasty. However, she also left a negative legacy due to the tyranny of her brother, Gi Cheol, interference in the Goryeo royal succession, and power struggles within the Yuan imperial family. The life of Empress Gi, who was both a victim of the era of tribute women and a powerful figure on the continent, illustrates the duality of humiliation, survival, and power in the late Goryeo period. #KoreanHistory #History #HistorySpecial #HistoryJournal #TimeTraveler Copyright ⓒ KBS.
