King Sukjong’s calligraphy was engraved into this stone tablet, whose full text was completed with four pieces of writing: Changdeok 6657, Changdeok 6670, Changdeok 6669, and Changdeok 6675. This sample of King Taejo’s handwriting is a panegyric written to confirm Princess Suksin’s ownership for the house he built for her in 1711.
