Biography

Early life

Lady Yun was born into the Namwon Yun clan, on April 11, 1765. She was the only child of Yun Chang-yun and his wife, Lady Yi of the Beokjin Yi clan.

Life as royal concubine

On February 21, 1780, Queen Dowager Yesun announced the selection for a new concubine for her step-grandson, King Jeongjo, because his primary wife, Queen Hyoui, couldn't bear any children and his first concubine, Lady Hong Won-bin, died one year prior. The selection took place from 30 February until 9 March.

On March 10, 1780, when she was 15 years old, Lady Yun became a concubine of the Bin rank, with the prefix "Hwa" (和), meaning "peace/harmony". She was alternatively known as Lady Gyeongsu (경수궁, 慶壽宮).[5][6]

Lady Hwa-bin died without issue, on September 14, 1824 (the 24th year of King Sunjo's reign). She was buried in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province.
