hmmmm...Thanks for this; for now I'll put it in the more-information-needed group.

184 episodes! Sadly still couldn't find much of the story. Small plot points:

• The Princess has a hard first 3 months in the marriage.
  
• She's married into a certain Minister Kim's family, and nobody likes her - even her husband.
  
• Someone reads too much into their husband's sleeptalking.
• Someone beats up the Princess' servant because they don't like her.
• The Princess sews some clothes herself for a birthday party.
• The Princess' husband goes missing for some reason - everyone wants to hold a funeral but the Princess' Court Lady Jang advises everyone to wait until the Princess gives birth.
• The Princess helps a certain Yang Gwi In in Court, even getting her promoted.

Aaaah. Mrs. Kyun-Hwon when she was young. The eyes and voice are unmistakable.

Wow nice catch. Wouldn't have spotted that at all...I can see the resemblance now but she isn't really in full-out Janice-from-Friends mode like she is in EWG.

I've added the 184 to the timeline; thanks for that. Can we guess anything at all about the time period from the episode? Probably not, just wondering because that's all we need to move the listing out of "more information needed" and into the main timeline.

Nope, nothing that hints at any time period yet :/ I'm always scrolling through these old papers though, might run into something one day!
