Kim Ye (rebel)

Kim Ye (Korean: 김예; Hanja: 金銳; died 868) was a member of the Silla royal House of Kim who plotted a failed rebellion against King Gyeongmun of Silla.

Kim Ye was a younger cousin of King Munseong.

At this time, he was the county magistrate of Giryang (modern-day Sinchang-myeon, Asan) and held the rank of saji (사지; 舍知).

Even though he was a royal relative and a part of the chingol class, he only held the low ranks of county magistrate and saji.

Dissatisfied with the succession of the kingship of Silla, he and Kim Hyŏn (김현; 金鉉) plotted a rebellion against King Gyeongmun.
