No it fiction. They are soap operas, even historical recreations are also fiction fantasy.

Well, most Taehas (long-running soap opera) are about a historical person in the past, so that's actually true, but to captivate the viewers, the production ads fictional elements to the history to make it more applying and interesting. But overall you can say that its 50% fiction and 50% real facts. (and you get to know many things about history in those soap operas)

GREETINGS. I RECENTLY TRAVELLED TO KOREA FOR DUAL CITIZENSHIP AFTER MY MOTHER DIED IN CALIFORNIA IN 2016. MY FATHER DIED IN CALIFORNIA IN 2006. I WAS BORN IN CALIFORNIA. MY LAST NAME IS RHEE AND I AM 전주 이, JONJOO, E OR YI.

I WANT TO KNOW IF IM A ROYAL DESCENDANT. AFTER I FOUND OUT FROM MY FAMILY RECORDS MY FATHER DIED, I SENT A LETTER TO CONTACT MY RELATIVES. MEANWHILE, I THOUGHT I MAY TRY ONLINE. IVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND A WEBSITE FOR THIS Jeonju Lee Royal Family Members Foundation I READ ABOUT IN ARTICLES.

MY FATHER TOLD ME WE ARE NOT RELATED TO THE ROYAL FAMILY OR TO SYNGMAN RHEE, OR ARE FAMOUS IN THIS WAY. I QUESTIONED HIM AFTER SOME CAUCASIAN GROWN UPS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD PRESSED ME REPEATEDLY ABOUT MY RELATIONS AT ABOUT 6 YEARS OLD. I SAID NO OR I WASNT SURE. IRONICALLY, THEY ONLY LEFT ME ALONE AFTER I TOLD THEM WHAT THEY WANTED TO HEAR. I BELIEVE MY FATHER, BUT ID LIKE TO KNOW.
