I recall hearing somewhere that this brave and strong-willed woman also put up a last bit of resistance when the Japanese moved in to finally take over. It was something involving the great seal of state - she hid it, or refused to hand it over, something like that.
Syngman Rhee's fear of her, and his keeping her virtually imprisoned, is a sign of the great respect she was held in by the Korean people. Princess Pangja was also greatly respected and loved, but was not, being Japanese, a potential ruler. Queen Yun was. Very much like her predecessor, Queen Min (Kojong's wife). --Dan 16:01, 2 March 2006 (UTC)profsnow
To people who'd like to help with this, I have some images that would be useful to upload of Queen Yun. For example, Image:Queen_Yun_Returns.jpg. I'd appreciate help with how to handle these images of uncertain lineage and copyright. --Dan 22:54, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
you have to ascertain that the image is freely licensed (no restriction on commercial use) or public domain (generally, over 100 yrs old for 2d images). adding images properly is not for the faint of heart, imho. see WP:IUP, for starters, there's a lot to read. Appleby 23:18, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
Okay, let me giveit a try. Here's an image I know is over 100 years old - it's Queen Yun's wedding photo: Image:Queen_Yun.jpg--Dan 23:33, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
