This is the series that I'm writing about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_Days_My_Prince
They leave it vague as to exactly what year span it takes place in but things that you pick up: "Joseon" is mentioned and the Joseon Dynasty takes place anywhere from 1392-1897. It's a fictional prince so I don't have any basis for narrowing it down by anything that happens in the plot other than the fact that the setting is clearly "early." However, one key plot point is the prince knowing how to write and it's in Chinese, not the Korean alphabet Hangul. Hangul was personally created by Sejong the Great in 1446. So 1446 is the latest year I can have my fic take place in (if I make a vague reference that the fictional prince turned king is a reference to Sejong himself)
The gal that I'm inserting into the fic is going to be a match not for the prince, but for a character that in the story, they leave single (and he's a hottie!). I'm making her from the "West" for a particular reason. This character has face blindness so I'm figuring someone with physical characteristics far different than they'd see in Joseon/Korea at that time may be a good match for him (say if she had red curly hair and green eyes)
