# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born in 925, Wang So inherited a realm barely a generation old when he became Gwangjong, fourth monarch of Goryeo. His reign ran until his death on 4 July 975, a span that saw the consolidation of royal power in a kingdom still working out what it would become.
