Min, the wife of King Taejong Yi Bang-won, beat Yi Bang-seok and Yi Bang-eon, who were leaving Yeongchumun Gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace, to death on the street.

On October 11, 1400, Min held a memorial service for them at Sinamsa Temple.

The governor of Sinamsa Temple suddenly collapsed when he vomited blood while bowing, and soon died.

Was it because of the curse of Lee Bang-seok and Lee Bang-eon who died unjustly?
