Lady Han was born on 16 August 1594 into the Cheongju Han clan to Han Jun-gyeom and his wife, Lady Hwang of the Changwon Hwang clan, as their fifth child of seven children. She was born and raised in the town  of Wonju until she married. In 1610, she married Prince Neungyang (능양군), Injo of Joseon, when she was 17 and was known as “Princess Consort Cheongseong” (청성군부인, 淸城郡夫人).

On 24 April 1623, she became the queen consort upon her husband's ascension to the throne. The Queen gave birth to a fourth son, Prince Yongseong, in 1624, her first daughter in 1626, and a fifth son in 1629, but both died prematurely. On 12  January 1636, she gave birth to a prince, her sixth son, who died four days later on 16 January 1636. On the same day, the Queen died at the age of 41 in Changgyeong Palace as she was suffering from postpartum illness. Her husband, King Injo wanted to bestow Myeongheon (명헌, 明憲) as her posthumous title, but Kim Sang-heon persuaded the king to change the name into Inyeol (인열): “In” for benevolence (仁) and “Yeol” for pillar (烈). King Injo had decided to have his own tomb be made next to the queen in Jangneung. After the king died , their son, King Hyojong granted his wish and buried his father there. Jangneung was originally located in Uncheon-ri, Paju, but when snakes and scorpions began to live and infest around the tomb, King Yeongjo moved the tomb to Galhyeon-ri, Paju. Siblings Issue
