The Queen Who Crowns

About:

Born into the influential Min family during the Goryeo era, Won Gyeong is the daughter of the prominent official Min Je. She marries Yi Bang Won, Prince Jeong An and son of King Tae Jo, the founder of the Joseon dynasty. When King Tae Jo names his second son, Yi Bang Gwa, as heir to the throne, Won Gyeong and Yi Bang Won work together to secure the succession for him instead. After Yi Bang Won ascends the throne as King Tae Jong, their once-strong partnership begins to unravel. The king's growing number of concubines strains their marriage, creating deep resentment and conflict. As tensions escalate, King Tae Jong moves to curb Queen Won Gyeong's influence and weaken the power of her family in his determination to consolidate royal authority.
