Princess Jeongsin (Hangul: 정신궁주 or 정신공주, Hanja: 貞信宮主 or 貞信公主; d. 1421) was a Goryeo Royal Princess as the second daughter of King Gongyang and Royal Consort Sun.[3][4]

Life

In 17 April 1390, she honoured as Princess Jeongsin (정신궁주, 貞信宮主) along with her sisters,[5] then married with U Seong-beom (우성범) whom later honoured as Prince Danyang (단양군).[6][7] However, in July 1392, after Yi Seong-Gye's ascension to the throne and made the new dynasty, U was sentenced to death and was beheaded along with Gang Hoe-gye (강회계), her younger brother-in-law.

U Seong-Beom came from the Danyang U clan (단양 우씨, 丹陽 禹氏) who was the son of U Hong-su (우홍수)[8] and the grandson of U Hyeon-bo (우현보). With U, she had one issue, a daughter.[9] While the Princess's father-in-law tried to conspired, it was failed and died after being executed by Taejo's royal troops in 23 August.
