Princess Jeonghye

King Mun's second daughter, buried in a stone-chamber tomb in the Liudingshan cemetery

Her tomb is in the Liudingshan tomb group at Dunhua, Jilin. It is a stone-chamber tomb with a corbelled "lantern" ceiling in the Goguryeo style, showing that Balhae carried on Goguryeo culture. Stone lions and an epitaph were found there; the epitaph calls her father King Mun "Emperor," showing that Balhae styled itself an empire.
