While visiting Queen Jaui, the King became infatuated with Ok-jeong's beauty and gave her the rank of ''Seungeun Sanggung'' (or Favored Sanggung; 승은 상궁), but his mother, [[Queen Myeongseong|Queen Dowager Hyeonyeol]], who belonged to the [[Westerners (Korean political faction)|Seoin faction]], feared that Jang Ok-jeong would influence him to favor the [[Southerners (Korean political faction)|Namin]], so she expelled her from the palace.

In 1683, Hyeonyeol died and Queen Min, Sukjong's wife at that time (posthumously known as [[Queen Inhyeon]]), allowed Lady Jang to return to court.

In 1686, Ok-jeong became a concubine with the rank of ''[[Naemyeongbu#Ranks|Sug-won]]'' (숙원, 淑媛).<ref>''Sug-won'' is the lowest rank for the concubine of the King ([[Naemyeongbu#Ranks|junior 4th]]).</ref> In 1688, she was elevated to ''[[Naemyeongbu#Ranks|So-ui]]'' (소의, 昭儀), after giving birth to the King's first son, [[Gyeongjong of Joseon|Yi Yun]].

In the court, the Seoin faction split into [[Noron (Korean political faction)|Noron]] (Old Learning), led by [[Song Si-yeol]], and [[Soron (Korean political faction)|Soron]] (New Learning), led by [[Yun Jeung]]. The Noron was supported by Queen Inhyeon.

The Namin faction pushed for the King to acknowledge Yi Yun as heir apparent, but the Seoin faction insisted that the Queen was still young and could bear a son, who should be the heir. Sukjong pushed for a compromise in which the Queen would adopt Yi Yun as her son. However, she refused to do so. Sukjong became angry at the opposition, and many were killed, including [[Song Si-yeol]]. The Namin faction seized power, and they exiled the Queen's father and the leaders of the Seoin faction.

In March 1688, Queen Inhyeon was also deposed and exiled.

In that same year, Jang So-ui was promoted to ''[[Naemyeongbu#Ranks|Bin]]'' (빈, 嬪), the highest rank for a consort, with the prefix ''Hui'' (禧), which means "beautiful". Later, Jang Hui-bin was appointed as Queen Consort.

In 1693, Sukjong's new favorite, a palace maid from the [[Choi (Korean surname)|Haeju Choe clan]], was officially elevated to a royal concubine of the ''Sug-won'' rank. Choe Sug-won (later [[Royal Noble Consort Sukbin Choe|Choe Suk-bin]]), was an open supporter of Queen Min and encouraged the King to reinstate her to her original position. In the meantime, Kim Chun-taek, who was member of the Noron faction, and Han Jung-hyuk from the Soron faction, staged a campaign to reinstate the Deposed Queen.

In 1694, Jang Ok-jeong lost the favor of the King.<ref>Book "East Asia: A Cultural, Social, and Political History", 3rd pag. 255.</ref> Sukjong grew disgusted by the greed of the Namin faction and the ever-powerful Jang family. He also felt remorse for his temperamental actions during ''[[Gisa Hwanguk]]''. In the government, the Namin faction's attempt to purge the Seoin on the charge of plotting to reinstate the Deposed Queen backfired.

The King banished Jang Hui-jae, Queen Jang's older brother, and the leaders of the Namin party. He officially demoted Jang Ok-jeong to her former position, ''Hui-bin'', and reinstated the Deposed Queen Min. This incident is called ''[[Gapsul Hwanguk]]'' (갑술환국). The Namin faction would never politically recover from this purge.

Unmoved, the King sentenced Hui-bin, her mother, her brother, the leader of Soron and all of her companions to death. 1700 people died as a result of the incident.{{citation needed|date=November 2021}} He also exiled the courtiers who had asked him to spare Lady Jang's life.<ref>{{cite book |last=Lee |first=Bae-young |date=20 October 2008 |title=Wome in Korean History |publisher=Ewha Womans University Press |pages=109–111 |isbn=978-8973007721}}</ref>

On the 7th day of the 10th month in the 27th year of his reign (November 7, 1701), Sukjong passed a decree prohibiting any concubine from ever becoming Queen, and on November 9, 1701, Jang Hui-bin was executed by poisoning at Chuseondang Hall, her residence inside [[Changgyeonggung|Changgyeong Palace]]. She was 42 years old.
On 7 October 1701, Sukjong passed a decree prohibiting any concubine from ever becoming Queen, and on 10 October 1701, Jang Hui-bin was executed by poisoning at Chwiseondang Hall, her residence inside [[Changgyeonggung|Changgyeong Palace]]. She was 42 years old.

Today, Jang Hui-bin is known for her greed for power. Some argue that she was a victim of the political struggles of the time and that as a member of the losing party, she may be portrayed in a deliberately negative light. For example, some claim that she severely wounded the Crown Prince, making it impossible for him to produce a child.{{citation needed|date=June 2020}} In fact, she would have desperately wanted her son to be able to sire heirs and become King, so she probably wouldn't have attacked him in such a manner.

Her tomb is called ''Daebinmyo'' and was originally located in [[Gwangju]], [[Gyeonggi Province]], but in June 1969 it was moved to the [[Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty|Seooneung Cluster]], in [[Deogyang-gu|Deogyang District]], [[Goyang]], Gyeonggi Province, near ''Myeongneung'', which contains the tombs of [[Sukjong of Joseon|King Sukjong]] and two of his wives, [[Queen Inhyeon]] and [[Queen Inwon]].<ref name="exploringkorea.com2">{{cite web|date=4 August 2011|title=Daebinmyo Tomb at Seooreung Tombs - Exploring Korea|url=http://www.exploringkorea.com/daebinmyo-tomb-at-seooreung-tombs/|access-date=26 October 2017|website=Exploringkorea.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=Archived copy|url=http://www.gogung.go.kr/fgn/jsp/en/html/academic/academic4-2.jsp|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140202113143/http://www.gogung.go.kr/fgn/jsp/en/html/academic/academic4-2.jsp|archive-date=2 February 2014|access-date=2014-01-26}}</ref> The relocation took place because the tomb was blocking the government's planned expansion of the city.

Behind the tomb is a large rock, and a pine tree has broken through the rock to grow. There is speculation that this reveals that Jang Hui-bin's ''ki'' (energy) was, and still is, very strong.

Royal Noble Consort Hui of the Indong Jang clan (Korean: 희빈 장씨; Hanja: 禧嬪 張氏; 3 November 1659 – 10 October 1701), personal name Jang Ok-jeong (장옥정; 張玉貞), was an infamous consort of Sukjong of Joseon and the mother of King Gyeongjong. She was queen of Joseon from 1690 until her deposition in 1694.

Biography

[edit]

Early life

[edit]

Jang Ok-jeong was the daughter of Jang Hyeong and his second wife, Lady Yun of the Papyeong Yun clan. Part of the Namin faction, she came from a long line of interpreters and belonged to the Jungin class.

Ok-jeong is widely thought to have been one of the most beautiful women in Joseon, and her charm was mentioned in the Annals.

She became a lady-in-waiting to the King's step-great-grandmother, Grand Queen Dowager Jaui, at the recommendation of Prince Dongpyeong, who was Sukjong's first cousin-once-removed and Jaui's step-grandson.[1]

Life as royal consort

[edit]

While visiting Queen Jaui, the King became infatuated with Ok-jeong's beauty and gave her the rank of Seungeun Sanggung (or Favored Sanggung; 승은 상궁), but his mother, Queen Dowager Hyeonyeol, who belonged to the Seoin faction, feared that Jang Ok-jeong would influence him to favor the Namin, so she expelled her from the palace.

In 1683, Hyeonyeol died and Queen Min, Sukjong's wife at that time (posthumously known as Queen Inhyeon), allowed Lady Jang to return to court.

In 1686, Ok-jeong became a concubine with the rank of Sug-won (숙원; 淑媛).[2] In 1688, she was elevated to So-ui (소의; 昭儀), after giving birth to the King's first son, Yi Yun.

In the court, the Seoin faction split into Noron (Old Learning), led by Song Si-yeol, and Soron (New Learning), led by Yun Jeung. The Noron was supported by Queen Inhyeon.

The Namin faction pushed for the King to acknowledge Yi Yun as heir apparent, but the Seoin faction insisted that the Queen was still young and could bear a son, who should be the heir. Sukjong pushed for a compromise in which the Queen would adopt Yi Yun as her son. However, she refused to do so. Sukjong became angry at the opposition, and many were killed, including Song Si-yeol. The Namin faction seized power, and they exiled the Queen's father and the leaders of the Seoin faction.

In May 1689, Queen Inhyeon was also deposed and exiled. This incident is called Gisa Hwanguk (기사환국).[3][4]

In that same year, Lady Jang was promoted to Bin (빈; 嬪), the highest rank for a consort, with the prefix Hui (禧), which means "beautiful". Later, Jang Hui-bin was appointed as queen consort.

In 1693, Sukjong's new favorite, a palace maid from the Haeju Choe clan, was officially elevated to a royal consort of the Sug-won rank. Choe Sug-won (later Choe Suk-bin), was an open supporter of Queen Min and encouraged the King to reinstate her to her original position. In the meantime, Kim Chun-taek, who was member of the Noron faction, and Han Jung-hyuk from the Soron faction, staged a campaign to reinstate the Deposed Queen.

In 1694, Jang Ok-jeong lost the favor of the King.[5] Sukjong grew disgusted by the greed of the Namin faction and the ever-powerful Jang family. He also felt remorse for his temperamental actions during Gisa Hwanguk. In the government, the Namin faction's attempt to purge the Seoin on the charge of plotting to reinstate the deposed Queen backfired.

Later years and death

[edit]

The King banished Jang Hui-jae, Queen Jang's older brother, and the leaders of the Namin party. He officially demoted Jang Ok-jeong to her former position, Hui-bin, and reinstated the Deposed Queen Min. This incident is called Gapsul Hwanguk (갑술환국). The Namin faction would never politically recover from this purge.

The Soron faction supported Crown Prince Yi Yun, who was Jang Hui-bin's son, while the Noron faction supported Yi Geum, Prince Yeoning, who was Choe Suk-bin's son.

In 1701, Queen Inhyeon died of an unknown disease. Allegedly, Sukjong discovered Lady Jang conspiring with a shaman priestess to curse the Queen with black magic and gloating over her death.[6] The Soron faction pleaded with the King to show mercy and pointed out that she was the mother of the Crown Prince.

Unmoved, the King sentenced Hui-bin, her mother, her brother, the leader of Soron and all of her companions to death. 1700 people died as a result of the incident.[citation needed] He also exiled the courtiers who had asked him to spare Lady Jang's life.[7]

On 7 October 1701, Sukjong passed a decree prohibiting any concubine from ever becoming Queen, and on 10 October 1701, Jang Hui-bin was executed by poisoning at Chwiseondang Hall, her residence inside Changgyeong Palace. She was 42 years old.

Burial

[edit]

Her tomb is called Daebinmyo and was originally located in Gwangju, Gyeonggi Province, but in June 1969 it was moved to the Seooneung Cluster, in Deogyang District, Goyang, Gyeonggi Province, near Myeongneung, which contains the tombs of King Sukjong and two of his wives, Queen Inhyeon and Queen Inwon.[8][9] The relocation took place because the tomb was blocking the government's planned expansion of the city.

Behind the tomb is a large rock, and a pine tree has broken through the rock to grow. There is speculation that this reveals that Jang Hui-bin's ki (energy) was, and still is, very strong. Some Korean websites report that because Lady Jang was such a strong woman there is a belief that if young, single women who want a boyfriend visit the tomb and pay a tribute, they will soon find love.[10]

Her memorial tablet was enshrined in Chilgung (or the "Palace Of Seven Royal Concubines").[11]
