초록

Yeonsangun has been regarded as a figure who was lack of logical reason. In short, he was a man of rich emotion rather than reason. In addition, he had a fatal defect in his characteristics caused by deficiency of maternal affection and love. This kind of personality eventually produced a big tragedy at his outburst of anger connected to the political situation.
After all, Yeonsangun was expelled by his subjects. But, their moral justification called 'Reforming of the Government' by deposing the king was denied by the public at once, because they were regarded as profiteers who expelled their lord for their personal interests and prosperity by taking advantage of the confusion. Thus, Jungjong Restoration called Jungjong-banjeong can be interpreted as a rebel made by meritorious subjects' desire and reforming of the government they argued was just for a justification.
For the subjects who had a strong will desire of co-governance by king and subjects, the king like Yeonsangun was the one to be overthrown or expelled, and the expelled king could not be 'king' any more even after his death. Even today, Yeonsangun has been said as a tyrant in Korean history. It deserves of his anger. Confrontation and conflict between the king and his subjects had continued in the desire of own's royal authority and co-governance by king and subjects throughout the Chosun dynasty. Inner conflict among subjects had also continued with their desire and will, which was called party conflict.
Yeonsangun's violence and misgovernment is eventually his own responsibility. He should have understood the situations in balance and controlled his emotion. In addition, he should have refrained from impulse and shown his generosity to his subjects to touch them because he was their king. Yeonsangun shows how deficient human's excessive desire leads to not only personal desolation, but also destroy of a country and society.
