- Description: In his quest to honor the memory of the deposed queen, the king moved her tomb to sacred ground and erected a new shrine and ancestral tablet in her name. Yet, when he sought to restore her posthumous title as queen, the realm's officials rose in defiance. They argued that doing so would defy the late king's will and staged an eleven-day sit-in. Despite their fervent pleas, the king stood resolute and denied their request. In a unified act of protest, all the officials, including Seonwoo Myeongdeok and Jang Daeseung, tendered their resignations, marking a moment of profound upheaval in the kingdom.
