Queen Woo's investiture as Queen Consort by King Sansang in 197

0197-09

The Samguk Sagi records that in the ninth lunar month of 197, the first year of King Sansang's reign, he made Woo, who had helped him gain the throne, his queen consort. This union is interpreted as an example of levirate marriage, though its social character is a subject of academic discussion.
