연산군(燕山君), 휘(諱) 융(㦕)은 성종 강정 대왕(成宗康靖大王) 의 맏아들이며, 어머니 폐비(廢妃) 윤씨(尹氏), 판봉상시사(判奉常寺事) 윤기견(尹起畎)의 딸이 성화(成化) 병신년) 11월 7일(정미)에 낳았다. 계묘년 2월 6일(기사)에 세자(世子)로 책봉(冊封)하고, 영중추부사(領中樞府事) 한명회(韓明澮) 등을 북경(北京)에 보내어 고명(誥命)을 청하니, 5월 6일(정유)에 황제가 태감(太監) 정동(鄭同) 등을 보내어 칙봉(勅封)을 내렸다. 소시(少時)에, 학문을 좋아하지 않아서 동궁(東宮)에 딸린 벼슬아치로서 공부하기를 권계(勸戒)하는 이가 있으매, 매우 못마땅하게 여겼다. 즉위하여서는, 궁안에서의 행실이 흔히 좋지 못했으나, 외정(外庭)에서는 오히려 몰랐다. 만년(晩年)에는, 주색에 빠지고 도리에 어긋나며, 포학한 정치를 극도로 하여, 대신(大臣)·대간(臺諫)·시종(侍從)을 거의 다 주살(誅殺)하되 불로 지지고 가슴을 쪼개고 마디마디 끊고 백골을 부수어 바람에 날리는 형벌까지도 있었다. 드디어 폐위하고 교동(喬桐) 에 옮기고 연산군으로 봉하였는데, 두어 달 살다가 병으로 죽으니, 나이 31세이며, 재위 12년이었다. King Yeonsangun, whose given name was Yung[역주 1], was born on the seventh day of the eleventh month of the Jeongmi Year (1476) in the Chenghua reign (1465-1487) as the first son of Great King Seongjong, Serene Stability.[역주 2] His mother was Deposed Queen Yun[역주 3], who was the daughter of Yun Gigyeon[역주 4], a supervisor in the Office of Ancestral Sacrifice (Bongsangsi). He was installed as the crown prince on the sixth day of the second month of the Gisa Year (1483). First Minister-without-Portfolio (Yeongjungchubusa) Han Myeonghoe[역주 5] was sent to Beijing to request a letter of investiture [from the Chinese emperor]. On the sixth day of the fifth month, the emperor conferred a letter of investiture through Palace Eunuch Jeong Dong[역주 6]. As a youth, Yeonsangun was not fond of studying, and was very disgruntled by officials in the East Palace[역주 7] who admonished him to care of his studies. After coming to power as king, he was usually ill-behaved in the palace, but this behavior was not yet known outside the palace. In the later years of his reign, he indulged himself in wine and sensual pleasure, acted contrary to reason, and exerted tyrannical rule to a degree so extreme that he put most of his great vassals, censors, and royal attendants to death. He even punished them with branding, cutting open their chests, chopping them into pieces, and grinding their bones to be blown away in the wind. He was finally dethroned, exiled to Gyodong 喬桐[역주 8], and demoted to Prince Yeonsangun. After only a few months, he died from an illness at the age of 31. He reigned for 12 years.
