Princess Chŏngsin (daughter of Seonjo)

Princess Chŏngsin (Korean: 정신옹주; 21 July 1583 – 14 February 1653) was a Joseon dynasty princess, daughter of Seonjo of Joseon by his concubine, Royal Noble Consort In of the Suwon Kim clan.

Life

Princess Chŏngsin was born on 21 July 1583 as the first daughter of King Seonjo born by Soyong In. She already had three brothers at that time, including Prince Jeongwon. Her mother would have three more daughters and a son.

In 1591, the eldest princess was set to marry, and the King chose Sŏ Kyŏngju, son of Sŏ Sŏng (서성), the Chief Councillor of the Privy Council (판중추부사).[1][2] Because of the Japanese invasion, the wedding was put on hold, and they married only in 1596. The couple had three sons and five daughters.

During the Jeongmyo War (1627), Princess Jeongshin, and the entire family fled with King Injo to Ganghwa Island, but later they returned to Hanseong.[3]
