Queen Hyogong

Queen Hyogong of the Pyeongchang Yi clan () was the wife Mokjo of Joseon and the mother of Ikjo of Joseon. She was also the grandmother of Dojo of Joseon, and the great-grandmother of Hwangjo of Joseon.

Biography

One of her ancestors was Yi Gwang, Prince Baekoh (이광 백오군) from Pyeongchang-gun, Gangwon-do. Because King Sejong disallowed a man and woman from the same clan to marry and disallowed any woman with the surname Yi, she became the only Joseon Queen Consort whom came from a Yi clan (이씨, 李氏) in Joseon history. With Mokjo, she bore him 6 sons.

In 28 July 1392, when Taejo established a new dynasty, she was granted the royal title Hyo-bi (효비, 孝妃; literally: ''Consort Hyo'') along with her husband whom was granted the title ''King Mok'' (목왕, 穆王). Later on 22 April 1411, King Taejong, gave her a posthumous name Queen Hyogong (효공왕후, 孝恭王后). Her tomb was located in Alleung, Neung-ri, Gapyeong-myeon, Siheung-gun, Hamgyeongnam-do along with her husband.
