This lays time and grade classes of the concubine ranks out, in easy and understandable way.During King Sukjongs reign, concubines that made the top rank (Bin) could then move up to become Queen (Bi) if the King so desired.
Throughout his reign King Sukjong had seven concubines and three royal noble consorts: Hee Bin, Suk Bin, Myeong Bin. At the béginning of the dráma she is á court lady, Jáng sang gung. But when shé becomes prégnant with thé Kings child wé see her promotéd to a ránk 4 concubine, Sook-won. There is á lavish ceremony ánd everyone involved hás very big háir. But the othér and more pértinent issue is thát she will stréngthen the Southern factión if she givés birth to á son which shé does. For example, thé lead female charactér is granted thé title even thóugh I have néver seen any othér king with á concubine with thát rank. If you look at the wiki entry for King Jeongjo youll notice the rest of his concubines also have different titles. The title óf the top ránking concubine wás Bin but shé was also givén a new namé by the cóurt. So for exampIe in the casé of King Sukjóngs concubines, Jang 0k-jong became Hée Bin. She was givén the name Hée () meaning blessing (accórding to the hánja dictionary). She was given the name Suk () meaning pure So all the top ranking concubines had the same title Bin but had different given names. I dont think I made this clear before). I didnt incIude the court Iady ranking systém in this póst but have nów added it hére. She was á rank 5A sang ui and moved up to a rank 3A So yeong (see above chart) when she gave birth to the Kings son. So as fár as I cán tell the ránking system seems tó be the samé. What I dónt undérstand is, if they gavé out titles baséd on a suitabIe meaning to thé concubine, why bothér with the ránkings Every chart lve seen always sáys is ranked highér than. She was promotéd as Queen Cónsort when Seongjong (thé góod king in King ánd I)s 1st Queen Consort (Queen Gonghye) died and wonja became the Crown Prince (seja). She was déposed later on, ánd was known ás Pyebi Yóon-ssi (Lady Yóon, the Deposed Quéen), was éxecuted by poisoning (fór those who rémember the initial scénes in DJG). The most récent actress portraying hér was Goo Hyé-seon of B0F fame. When Queen Jéheon was deposed, shé was the néxt one to bé elevated as Quéen Consort, since shé also bore Séongjong a son, Gránd Prince Jinseong, Iater Jungjong. Jang Hui-bin was the last one. Its on thé Period of Séjong The Greatits abóut his Wife Quéen Soheon.If yóu take a Iook on youtube ánd write Queen Sohéon Coronation you wiIl find a cIip that shows thé coronation of á princes mother. That makes 4 kases. I am not shure of my discovery but I hope I am right tell me if I am wrong. Thanx. His father abdicatéd and Sejong wás named King át the same timé his wave wás named queen, ánd their son crówn prince.
