[KS] Queen Min (Myong Hwanghu)

[Stefan Ewing]

There was also the television drama _Myo^ngso^ng Hwanghu_, which aired on 
KBS TV between 2001 and 2002 and starred Ch'oe Myo^nggil as the eponymous 
empress.  (http://www.kbs.co.kr/end_program/drama/myungsung/index.html).

For some reason, the "see again" link doesn't work from the main page, but 
can be accessed here:

(Should be called "postview.html," I suppose....)
