{{short description|None}}
The following is a list of queen consorts, queen dowagers and grand queen dowagers of Kingdom of Joseon and empress consort and empress dowager of Korean Empire.
Title
The Joseon dynasty (also transcribed as Chosŏn or Chosun, {{langx|ko|대조선국; 大朝鮮國}}, {{Literal translation|Great Chosun Country}}) was a Korean dynastic kingdom that lasted for five centuries.{{cite web |title=Chosŏn dynasty {{!}} Korean history |url=https://www.britannica.com/topic/Choson-dynasty |website=Encyclopedia Britannica |publisher=Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc. |access-date=10 February 2019 |language=en}} Joseon King accepted Chinese suzerainty and acknowledged the Chinese emperor as their nominal overlordKang, Etsuko H. (1997). [https://books.google.com/books?id=4f0jnNzdRb4C&pg=PA49&dq= Diplomacy and Ideology in Japanese-Korean Relations: from the Fifteenth to the Eighteenth Century, p. 49.] until the Gabo Reform in December 1894. The Primary Consort of the Joseon King bore the title wangbi (왕비, 王妃),{{efn|王 King + 妃 Consort}} translated as Queen in English, with the style of "Her Royal Highness" (baama; 마마, 媽媽). The title used in the court language was junggungjeon (중궁전, 中宮殿) or jungjeon (중전, 中殿), translated as "Center Palace" in English. Wanghu (왕후, 王后), the title for the Primary Consort of the King during pre-Joseon era, became a posthumous title.
The title Royal Queen Dowager (왕대비, 王大妃){{efn|王 King + 大 Great + 妃 Consort}} was given to the widow of a king. Queen Dowager (대비, 大妃),{{efn|大 Great + 妃 Consort}} originally was the short form of Royal Queen Dowager, but it became a lesser rank title during the reign of King Cheoljong and King Gojong. The widow of the previous king was called the Grand Royal Queen Dowager (대왕대비, 大王大妃),.{{efn|大 Great + 王 King + 大 Great + 妃 Consort}}
After Second Gabo Reform in December 1894, which proclaimed the severance of the subordinate relationship with China, royal titles also changed. The title changed from wangbi to wanghu and from wangdaebi to wangtaehu (왕태후, 王太后).{{efn|In Eastern Asia royalti, both 妃 and 后 used for part of consort's title and translated as consort in English. 后 usually used by chief consort of the sovereign monarch, while 妃 had lesser rank than 后.}}
In October 1897, King Gojong proclaimed Korea as an empire and he assumed the title of Emperor (hwangje; 황제, 皇帝) in order to assert Korea's independence. Automatically, his wife held the title of empress consort (hwanghu; 황후, 皇后){{efn|皇 Imperial + 后 Consort}} and the monarch's widow held the title empress dowager (hwangtaehu; 황태후, 皇太后). From all the consorts of Joseon's ruler, only Empress Sunjeong held the rank of empress consort during her lifetime. Empress Myeongseong died in 1895, two years before the Korean Empire was proclaimed.
