She was born into the Incheon Yi clan as the tenth child and second daughter of Yi Ja-yeon (이자연) and Lady Gim (부인 김씨), daughter of Gim In-wi (김인위) from the Gyeongju Gim clan. Her elder sister became Munjong of Goryeo's second wife and her younger sister became his fourth wife.[3] Although the date when she entered the palace is unknown, but she was honoured with the Royal title of Princess Suryeong (수령궁주; 壽寧宮主) and became a Pure Consort (숙비; 淑妃) in 1082.[4] She later received her posthumous name of Worthy Consort Ingyeong (인경현비; 仁敬賢妃)[2] and they had 3 sons together.[5] Through her eldest son, she would become the paternal great-grandmother of Queen Janggyeong, Marchioness Gaeryeong, Queen Uijeong, and Queen Seonjeong.[6]
