Prince Hyodŏk (Korean: 효덕태자; Hanja: 孝德太子) was a Goryeo royal family member. He was the first son of Daejong and a grandson of Taejo, the dynasty's founder.[1] He was the oldest brother of King Seongjong, Queen Heonae, and Queen Heonjeong.[citation needed] Since their parents had died when he was young, he was raised by his paternal grandmother, Queen Sinjeong alongside his siblings.[2] Therefore, it was speculated that he lived in Hwangju where Queen Sinjeong came from.[citation needed] Also, since King Gyeongjong's throne was succeeded by his younger brother and not him, so it might be that he died at a young age before the time of throne's ascension.[3]
