MBC's promotional description from this poster in the newspapers: "A human drama about the ups and downs buried in the shadow of history! One woman's fate is swept up in the whirlpools of Fortune, but a new chapter of history is already opening..."
Most likely about the life of a fictional girl named Yeonji amidst the turmoil of King Taejong's reign. The show ends when Taejong abdicates to Sejong.
Short clips from the show here:
And summary of the last episode from the MBC Archives: "Episode 197: Yeonji tells Ungok Won Cheon Seok about the past, and asks about her way forward. Won Cheon Seok says he hopes that she tells her descendants the truth. Yeonji leaves Mount Chiak and seeks the Monk at Seunggasa Temple. The Madam hears that Yeonji is back. Meanwhile, Lee Bang Won passes the Throne to the Crown Prince. Yeonji sheds her past burdens and sets off on her way."

Nice find, thanks for sharing. I'll get it into the timeline.
Remarkable how many daily historicals there used to be.

I wonder how much of a production nightmare it is to do a series that releases its episodes daily?

Especially with the constraints of being a historical...a contemporary drama you can take in any direction you want to at any time but life hundreds of years ago doesn't give you as many options. Yeah it must have been extremely difficult.

Opening Title! Also since Shin Bong Seung wrote both this and the 500 Years series apparently there's some similarities in the show but I can only compare one scene because literally only the final episode of this show is still in existence.

The comparison! The lines translate a lot differently in English but in Korean it's almost the same. Although admittedly even these two sentences were challenging to translate...

The Sejong looks a lot like "our" Sejong from GKS.
How sad, 196 episodes gone, hearing these things is always depressing.

Mostly from the side I guess.

That's actually Han Insu! You might recognize him from Flower in Prison, Cruel Palace, Queen Insu, Deep Rooted Tree, Yi San, Jumong and a couple more.
