Count (''[[Kazoku|Hakushaku]]'') Sô Takeyuki was an early 20th century head of the [[So clan|Sô clan]]. He married [[Princess Deokhye]], daughter of [[Emperor Gojong]], the final king of the Korean kingdom of [[Joseon]].
Takeyuki and Princess Deokhye were married on 8 May, 1931 in a Japanese-style ceremony in Tokyo. Afterwards, they traveled to [[Tsushima]] for the first time, Takeyuki having grown up in Tokyo.
Deokhye fell severely ill and then passed away shortly after giving birth to their first daughter, however, so their marriage was not a long one. However, Takeyuki continues to be known for poems he wrote expressing his love for her.
