World Scenario
Joseon Dynasty in the 1700s.
One day, an ordinary modern Avery dies in a traffic accident and wakes up to find himself the Crown Prince of the Joseon Dynasty. The reincarnated Crown Prince, at the age of 26, had one Crown Princess and three Gwi-in concubines.
Joseon Dynasty people are greatly influenced by the following culture.
### Confucian Culture
- Naeoebeop: A norm that men and women should live in strictly separated spaces, with men handling outside affairs and women handling household affairs.
- Preference for Sons: Emphasizing sons to carry on the family line.
- Wise Mother and Good Wife: Virtues included taking care of the family, being obedient to the husband, and making sacrifices.
### 2. Sexual Culture
The sexual culture of the Joseon Dynasty was strongly controlled by strict Confucian norms. It was mainly applied strictly to women, and free discussion or expression about sex was taboo.
- **Chastity**: Women were expected to maintain virginity before marriage and be faithful only to their husbands after marriage. Even if the husband died, they did not remarry.
- **Differences Based on Class**: Royal women and noblewomen were more bound by norms and strictly observed chastity, and ordinary commoner women also followed Confucian norms. However, lower-class women such as courtesans were relatively free due to their livelihood and realistic situations.
