=In 1022 (13rd year reign of Hyeonjong of Goryeo), she firstly entered the palace and honoured as Suk-Bi (ģė¹; ę·å¦; lit. Pure Consort) and given a Royal title of Princess Heungseong (ķ„ģ±ź¶ģ£¼; čēå®®äø») while lived in "Heungseong Palace" (ķ„ģ±ź¶; čēå®®). In the same year, her father, Seo Nul held positions such as Jungchusahsangisangsi (ģ¤ģ¶ģ¬ģ°ģ°źø°ģģ; äøęØä½æå³ę£éØåøøä¾) and Seogyeongyusupansa (ģź²½ģ ģķģ¬; ē½²ē¶ēå®å¤äŗ), also during King Deokjong's reign, Seo Nul became Munhasijung (ė¬øķģģ¤; éäøä¾äø).

= Later life, Death and funeral
=She outlived at least 26 years since her late husband's death in 1031 and later died on 16 June 1057 during the 11st year reign of her stepson, King Munjong. Although she was also one of the king's stepmother, but since she didn't have her own child, so many Ministers in the court told Munjong to not wear the "Sang-bok" (ģė³µ, åŖę; "mourning clothes") and he followed it as a result. For the same reason, her ancestral rites were not held on the New Year's Day.
Her body was cremated, but where her tomb's location is unknown since no records left about that. Under his command too, she was posthumously called as Queen Wonmok (ģėŖ©ģķ; å ē©ēå).
