Yi Se-jwa

Yi Se-jwa (1445–1504), enfeoffed as Prince Kwangyang, was a civil official of early Joseon. In 1482, under King Seongjong, he carried the royal order that forced the deposed Queen Yun, mother of the future King Yeonsangun, to take poison.

During the literati purge of 1498 he urged the execution of Kim Chong-jik and his followers. After he accidentally spilled wine on Yeonsangun's robe at a banquet in 1503, the king exiled him on a charge of lèse-majesté.

His role in Queen Yun's death later caught up with him. In the purge of 1504 the king had him put to death.
