Sinmu of Silla

Sinmu (died 839), personal name Kim U-jing, was the 45th monarch of the Korean kingdom of Silla.

His reign was the briefest in the state's history, lasting only from the fourth to the seventh lunar month of 839.

[1] Kim Yang, who was then concealing himself on a mountain near the capital, heard the news and raised up an army to go to Cheonghaejin.

Ujing asked Jang Bogo to help him to take advantage of the confusion of the country and to make himself a king.

In 839, Ujing and his followers defeated King Minae's army at the battle of Daegu and quickly advanced upon the capital.
