Memoirs of Lady Hyegyong – A Book Review
To fully understand the memoirs of Lady Hyegyong, one must first understand the political circumstances at the time. At this period of the ChosOn Dynasty there were two major political parties, that of the Soron and the Noron. Crown Prince Sado was on the side of the Soron and his wife, Lady Hyegyong, followed her father on the Noron side. There was destined to be some degree of discord politically in the couple’s marriage from the beginning. Though westerners may have mixed opinions about Lady Hyegyong, Koreans, for the majority, believe that Lady Hyegyong showed much more support for her father than she ever did for her husband, the Crown Prince. After all, the marriage between the two was a decision made by parents-not desired by either of them.
