Korean Imperial Household


 

The Korean Imperial Household consists of the descendants of the Joseon Dynasty royal family. All are members of the Jeonju Yi clan, and trace their descent from Taejo of Joseon. Their status as royalty is not acknowledged by any country, but they continue to attract occasional media attention in South Korea. This happened most recently with the July 2005 funeral of Prince Gu, former head of the household.
