Jason King (known as JK, born Jason Griffiths in Worcestershire, England, 13th January 1975) is a British radio DJ. Along with Joel Ross, he presents the coveted UK Top 40 on BBC Radio 1.

The duo were the winners of two Sony Radio Academy Awards in 2005; a Gold for 'Breakfast Show Of The Year' and a Silver for 'Entertainment Show'. The pair first came together on Viking FM in Hull when Joel moved from the afternoon show he was hosting to join JK on breakfast. JK had become breakfast show host in 1998 after two years on the lunchtime slot, while also hosting a weekend dance music programme called Club 969.

On television the boys have presented Playboyz, a fast moving gadget series for Granada Men and Motors and Motor Maniacs, a series dedicated to men obsessed with bikes and cars. Most recently, they have been the hosts of the Pure Soap on BBC3, a daily 30 minute live show looking at all things to do with soap operas.

Away from radio, JK is a football fan and an animal lover. A farmer's son, his initial ambitions were to work for the RSPCA.
