He was the second son of King Gojong and the only full younger brother of King Wonjong. He was known before his reign as the '''Marquess of An'gyŏng''' and Duke of An'gyŏng. Although he was given the temple name of Yeongjong by the Goryeo court, his reign's legitimacy is not widely recognized by modern-day scholars.
In 1253, 1259, 1265 and 1266, he visited the Yuan dynasty as an envoy when Goryeo dispatched a negotiating envoy.<ref name=":0">{{Cite encyclopedia |script-title=ko:고려후기 제23대 고종의 둘째 아들인 왕자. |url=https://encykorea.aks.ac.kr/Article/E0034497 |encyclopedia=Encyclopedia of Korean Culture |publisher=Academy of Korean Studies |access-date=31 January 2024}}</ref> In 1269, he ascended the throne with the help of the government official Im Yŏn.<ref name=":0" /> Not a year after, he was deposed under Yuan's pressure.
