first half of ninth century) was a Chinese poet.

By passing the rigorous requirements of the imperial examination system, he received his Jinshi degree, in 832, and subsequently followed a "moderately distinguished" professional scholarly career.

Two of Xu Hun's verses are included in the famous poetry anthology Three Hundred Tang Poems, both in the five-character regulated verse form.

His work has been compared in style with Li Shangyin and Wen Tingyun.
