Queen Jeongui of the Gaeseong Wang clan (Korean정의왕후 왕씨; Hanja貞懿王后 王氏) was a Goryeo Royal family member as the granddaughter of King Hyeonjong[1] who became the first wife of her first cousin, King Sunjong.[2] Although commons Goryeo Queens changed their paternal clan into their maternal one, but Queen Jeongui didn't change her clan,[3] so it was speculated that there were some wrong theory on the records.
