Shō Ken (尚 賢, Shō Ken, October 15, 1625 – October 19, 1647) was the 9th king of the Ryukyu Kingdom, who ruled from 1641 to 1647.
He had two elder brothers named Shō Kyō (尚恭) and Shō Bun (尚文), but both of them died before their father.
So Shō Ken became the heir apparent of the kingdom, and was given Kume and Nakagusuku magiri as his domain.
