Grand Lady Heonmok of the Gyeongju Pyeong clan [2] ( Korean: 헌목대부인 평씨; Hanja: 獻穆大夫人 平氏) was the daughter of Pyeong-Jun. [1] [3] She became the 7th wife of Taejo of Goryeo and mother of Prince Sumyeong. [4]
Among all of Taejo's wives and consorts, she held the highest title below the queen. This indicated that her father made an important contribution - to established the new Goryeo Dynasty and possibly that he was a behind-the-scenes figure who promoted Silla's noble wealth. Through her son, Heonmok became the great-grandmother of Queen Seonjeong.
