Queen Wonhye of the Ansan Kim clan (Korean: 원혜왕후 김씨; Hanja: 元惠王后 金氏; died 31 July 1022[1]), posthumously and commonly known as Queen Mother Wonhye (원혜태후; 元惠太后) was the 4th wife of King Hyeonjong of Goryeo, younger sister of Queen Wonseong and elder sister of Queen Wonpyeong.
She was born into the Ansan Kim clan as the second daughter of Kim Un-bu and Lady Yi, daughter of Yi Ho-gyom (이허겸) from the Gyeongwon Yi clan.[2] Alongside her elder sister, she entered King Hyeonjong's palace around 1011 CE. She was honoured as Princess Anbok (Korean: 안복궁주; Hanja: 安福宮主) while living in Anbok Palace (안복궁; 安福宮). This later changed into Princess Yeondeok (연덕궁주; 延德宮主) when she moved to Yeondeok Palace (연덕궁; 延德宮).[3][4]
In 1022, the 13th year of her husband's reign, Lady Kim died.[5] Three years later, she was posthumously honoured as a queen consort. She was also honoured as Queen Pyeonggyeong (평경왕후; 平敬王后) in 1027 and buried in Hoereung Tomb (회릉; 懷陵).[6]
After her eldest son ascended the throne as King Munjong, Lady Kim became honored as a queen dowager. Beside Munjong, she bore a son[7] and a daughter, the latter of whom would marry King Deokjong.[8]
