Royal Consort Sugui Sin

Sugui Shin (? – 16 June 1476), of the Geochang Shin clan, was a consort of Crown Prince Uigyeong (King Deokjong), the eldest son of King Sejo.

Biography Early life Lady Shin was most likely born during the reign of King Sejong, but the exact date and year of birth are unknown. Her father was Shin Seon-gyeong and her mother was a lady from the Cheongju Han clan.

On her paternal side, she was a second cousin of Deposed Queen Shin and a second cousin once removed of Queen Dangyeong.

Through her maternal line, she was a fourth cousin once removed of Crown Prince Uigyeong's legitimate wife, Queen Insu, and a fifth cousin of Queen Ansun, sharing Han Ak (한악; 1274–1342) as their ancestor. Via Han Ak's grandson, Han Su, Lady Shin was a third cousin of Queen Jangsun and Queen Gonghye.

Her maternal uncle, Han Gye-mi (한계미; 1421–1471), married an elder sister of Queen Jeonghui.

As royal consort In 1456, she was selected as a consort of Crown Prince Uigyeong (then known as Crown Prince Chang) alongside Lady Gwon and Lady Yun, and was appointed as a consort of the crown prince of the junior fifth rank (소훈; sohun). The three women entered the palace that same year.

The crown prince suddenly passed away in 1457. When he was posthumously honored as king, Lady Shin was elevated to a royal consort of the junior second rank .

She died in 1476, during the reign of King Seongjong, two decades after she had entered the palace. The location of her tomb remains unknown.
