Prince Sado (1735 - 1762) was born as the second son of the Korean king Yeongjo of Joseon. Because his older brother Prince Hyojang died young, in 1728, Prince Sado was born the royal heir. However, he was mentally ill, wantonly killed people, and was very erratic. This was a disappointment to his father, who finally ordered him to be sealed alive in a large rice chest (an order he obeyed), where he died within eight days. His son became Jeongjo of Joseon after Prince Sado's death.
