Hyeonjong (Korean: 현종; Hanja: 顯宗; 14 March 1641 – 17 September 1674), personal name Yi Yeon (이연; 李棩), was the 18th monarch of the Joseon of Korea. His reign was mostly marked by heavy conflict among the nation's political factions on various issues, particularly on funeral rites. He is also the only king in Joseon's more than 500 year-long history to not have any concubines.[1]
