Grand Prince Yeondeok (born Wang Hun) or known before as Prince Yeondeok, was a Goryeo Royal family member as the 3rd and youngest son of Duke Gangyang, son of King Chungnyeol.[4] Through his only daughter, he would become the maternal grandfather of King Gongyang. He was once imprisoned after committing adultery with Gim Yeong-jang (김영장)'s widow, but was soon released after his brother exerted pressure on Goryeo court due to the power he had from Yuan.[5]
