Grand Internal Princess Consort Wanyang (Hangul: 완양부대부인, Hanja: 完陽府大夫人; 19 February 1804 - 19 February 1840) was a member of the Joseon Royal Family, as the legitimate wife of Grand Internal Prince Jeongye.[2] As the primary consort, she became the adoptive mother of King Cheoljong of Joseon[3] and was given the royal title after his ascension.[4] She also bore Jeongye a son, Prince Hoepyeong.[5]

Life[]

The future Grand Internal Princess Consort Wanyang was born on 19 February 1804 (4th year of King Sunjo's reign) in Yeonji-dong, as the daughter of Choi Su-chang and his wife, Lady Yi of the Gwangju Yi clan. Her paternal grandfather was Choi Jong-hyeong, who was an immediate descendant of Choi Sun-jak (최순작).

Lady Choi was said to have always been at ease despite difficult family circumstances and according to Cheoljong's Annals, she lived peacefully with Grand Internal Prince Jeongye's two concubines.

In 1830, when King Sunjo gave a special order to release members of Prince Euneon's family from exile, she and her husband were able to live in Hanseong again.[6]

The Princess Consort died on her birthday, 19 February 1840 at the age of 36 in her husband’s private residence, Gyeonghaeng Hall.

Tomb[]

Her tomb was first located in Jungheung-dong, Hado-myeon, Yangju-gun, Gyeonggi-do, but was relocated to Seondan-dong and joined to Jeongye Daewongun's tomb on the right side.[7] It was built by Kim Jwa-geun, Queen Sunwon's younger brother, in 1851 (2nd year of King Cheoljong's reign) along with her tombstone.
