Kim Yun-kyong (Korean: 김윤경; Hanja: 金允經; June 9, 1894 – February 3, 1969) was a Korean linguist and educator, renowned for his works such as Joseon Script and History of Joseon Linguistics (조선문자 급 어학사; 朝鮮文字及語學史, 1938), Korean Language Grammar (나라말본, 1948), and Middle School Korean Language Grammar (중등말본, 1948). Kim was an activist for the Korean language movement and attempted to preserve the Korean writing system during the Japanese colonial period. In recognition of his efforts to safeguard the Korean language and promote national consciousness, he was posthumously awarded the National Foundation Medal in 1977 and the Patriotic Medal of the Order of Merit for National Foundation in 1990.
