Princess Heungsu (Korean: 흥수궁주; 흥수공주; Hanja: 興壽宮主; 興壽公主; 1088–1123) was a Goryeo Royal Princess as the second daughter of King Sukjong and Queen Myeongui[1] who later married her uncle's son–Wang Jeong the Count Seunghwa (승화백 왕정), and received "2,000 sik-eup" (식읍 2,000호) and "300 sik-sil" (식실 300호).[2]
She firstly received her title and honor as a princess in 1102 (7th years reign of her father) and in 1105 (her eldest brother's ascension), she was given the "Sungdeok Palace" (숭덕궁; 崇德宮) as her own mansion.[3] That same year, Heungsu gave birth to her first son and upon hearing this, her eldest brother sent Gim Go (김고) on board to gave many gifts to her.[4] According to the records that were left and found, she bore Wang Jeong two sons: Wang Gi (왕기) and Wang Jae (왕재). Meanwhile, the princess died in 1123 (ascension year of her nephew) and her husband died seven years after her in 1130.
