Biography
Her name is mentioned only once in "Nihon Shoki". After the fall of Baekje by the Silla-Tang alliance, on 13 July 660 (the twentieth year of King Uija's reign), she was captured by General Tang, Su Dingfang, and sent to Tang.
According to the inscription on the Jeongnimsa Temple and the book Nihon Shoki, the wife of one of the Baekje's generals played an important role in the fall of the Baekje, but there are claims that General Baekje's wife and Eun'go are in fact one person.
