Are there any English-language translations of sources describing death by sayak (사약; 賜藥) poisoning in Korean history? I'm interested in what the effects of the poison were on the body.

Best answer: I know this is a weird source but - SAYAK - the poison used during the Joseon Dynasty to kill political enemies and traitors of the nation.
