Queen Yongsin

The future Queen Yongsin was born as the daughter of Han-Jo (한조)^[4] and the younger sister of Han-Gyu (한규),^[2] also the older sister of her future husband's second wife, Queen Yongui. Not like the other Goryeo queens, she had no any blood-relation with Jeongjong from their initial family and this marriage was just a noble and royal family.

They were married while Jeongjong was still "Prince Pyeongyang" (평양군; 平壤君) and after his ascension to the throne, she became his queen consort and given royal title as Princess Yeonheung (연흥궁주; 延興宮主).^[5]

Meanwhile, in 1036, the Queen died and was buried in "Hyeolleung Tomb" (현릉; 玄陵) with received her full posthumous name in 1048 (2nd year reign of Munjong of Goryeo).^[2]
