'Dong Yi (동이 / 同伊)' is the old name of Royal Noble Consort Sook of the Choi clan or Choi Sook-bin. She is a concubine of King Suk-jong and King Yeong-jo of Joseon.
'Dong Yi' was a water maid in the palace, under Queen Inhyeon. One night, she was praying in her chamber for Inhyeon's wellness when Sukjong, who was crossing outside after a trip outside of the palace, heard her and, moved by her kindness (Sukjong was having his regrets at that time), made her his concubine. She became suk-bin after the birth of a son in 1694. Besides this son, she had 2 other sons (both disputed).
