From the heights of Mount Paektu, holding high a drawn sword, I look
Across the sky of the land-hemmed in between aliens north and south;
When, o when, will the dust of strife settle in the north, in the south?
General Nam I, 1441-1468

Court Lady Ranks 내명부 궁관

For each rank there are two (for rank 5 and 6), three (for rank 7 and 8) and four (for rank 9) titles.  Jeong 정 (正) is the higher level for each rank and Jong 종 (從) is the lower level.


The rank Sang-gung 상궁 (尙宮) is a rank for a court lady that is already intimate with the king or the head of a department (e.g Highest Kitchen Lady, Chief Lady Inspector). 
The court ady that is intimate with the king is not a royal consort yet until she is promoted or until she gives birth to a prince or a princess. Ranks of royal consorts can be found here.
