I guess Korea would be like Catherine II Velikiye of Russia.

I'll have to photoshop here image into a love scene with a horse to be sure, though.

since the modern Crown is merely symbolic of the people's collective sovereignty,  ... sure. I would be Leviathan meets Walt Whitman as I contain multitudes.

In practical terms, I would allow the elected PM and his cabinet run everything, as I'm really just there to eat raw seal, sign a few bills, make appearances and prop up the constitution

In the worst scenario, things could get quite nasty if I had power to have people killed instantly with one word... Nero supposedly tried hard to be a good emperor, but absolute power corrupts absolutely, the man that possess it must rule himself with an iron hand.

I'm not entirely certain that Nero was that bad of an emperor.  He was mostly despised by the aristocracy who wrote the unflattering works we know him by today.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I'd probably be a good monarch for administration, but a horrible one for the people, because I'd be smacking down idiotic policies left and right, whether the people like it or not.
Experience bij!
