Heonan of Silla (died 861), personal name Kim Ŭi-jŏng, was the 47th king of the Silla kingdom of Korea. He was the younger half-brother of King Sinmu. What little we know of his reign comes from the Samguk Sagi. The rebel leader Kung Ye is alleged to have been a son of either King Heonan or Gyeongmun, though the accuracy of such a claim is not fully verifiable.[1][2]

Following a famine in the year 859, he sent relief to the peasants and supported agriculture through the construction of irrigation works.

Being without a son, Heonan chose his relative Kim Ŭng-nyŏm as his heir. After his death, Kim Ŭng-nyŏm took the throne, becoming King Gyeongmun. His tomb in Gyeongju was known as the Gongjakji (공작지/孔雀趾).
