eldest son of the late Emperor Myungjong, he was exiled to Goryeo and planned
to be killed before the crown prince dies (his younger brother) to assure El

failed as Wang Yoo and his men tried their best to protect him for the sake of
Goryeo. He was left guarded by Seungnyang during their attempt to escape his
killers and head over to Yuan. He successfully made it to Yuan and became the
emperor at the expense of Goryeo, the king, and Seungnyang.
