Princess Boryeong (1066–1113) was a Goryeo Royal Princess as the younger daughter of King Munjong and Queen Inye who survived infancy along with her elder sister, Princess Jeokgyeong.[2] She was also the youngest living sister to Sunjong, Seonjong, and Sukjong.[3]
She was one of Yi Ja-yeon (이자연)'s maternal granddaughters thus making her the grandniece of Queen Wonseong and Queen Wonpyeong, who were also the older and younger sisters of her paternal grandmother. Her father's 3rd and 4th wife were initially her maternal aunts.[4] The princess later married her first cousin (her uncle's son), Wang Yeong (왕영) who became the Duke Nakrang upon their marriage.[5] Together, they had 2 sons: Wang Jeong (왕정; 王禎) who would marry King Sukjong's 2nd daughter, Princess Heungsu, and Wang Ji (왕지; 王禔) who held an official position during King Yejong's reign.[6][7]
Princess Boryeong later died a year after her husband in 1113 (8th year reign of her nephew, King Yejong) and was buried in Onreung tomb (온릉; 溫陵), and also received Gyeongsun (경순; 慶順) as her posthumous name.[8]
