Queen Jangseon of the Jiksan Choe clan (Korean: 장선왕후 최씨; Hanja: 莊宣王后 崔氏) was a Goryeo queen consort as the second wife of King Uijong, her maternal first cousin. Her life wasn't described in too much detail as there's only a record of her becoming Uijong's queen consort on 6 August 1148, following her father's death that same year.[2]
