Gomyeong, Imperial Order for Official Appointments
This includes two gomyeong credentials for a person named Tungˇsimoo. One is from the reign of the Kangxi Emperor and posthumously invests Hwang, mother of Tungˇsimoo, who had been granted the rank of Tasarahabbeon gyeomjeonguiwi (拖沙喇哈番兼整儀尉), a hereditary military position, with the title of Sukin (淑人) or Lady of a High Official. The other, from the reign of Emperor Yongzheng, invests Tung Fu Bin, father of Tungˇsimoo, with the senior first rank of Gwangrok daebu (光祿大夫), and invests Seok, mother of Tung Fu Bin, and his birth mother with the title of Ilpum buin (一品夫人), both also posthumously.
