Genealogy of Joseon Monarchs
Genealogy of Joseon Monarchs
Monarchs in the Joseon Dynasty of Korea are descended from Emperor Taejo of the Jeonju Lee lineage. Joseon Monarchs ruled Korea from 1392 until 1897. In 1897, the name of the country was changed from Joseon to the Korean Empire, and was ruled by Emperors continuing in the same lineage until the Empire was dissolved in 1910, at the time of the annexation of Korea by Japan.
Only direct descendents in the paternal line are shown in the genealogy, and sons who died in infancy are omitted. Legitimate sons, the sons of Queens, are listed first, in boxes outlined in blue, followed by sons of concubines, listed in order of their date of birth.
