Kim Ye (Korean:김예;Hanja:金銳; died 868) was a member of the Silla royal House of Kim who plotted a failed rebellion against King Gyeongmun of Silla.
Kim Ye was a younger cousin of King Munseong. In 855, he participated in the construction of a stone pagoda at Ch'angnimsa Temple. At this time, he was the county magistrate of Giryang (modern-day Sinchang-myeon, Asan) and held the rank of saji (사지;舍知). Even though he was a royal relative and a part of the chingol class, he only held the low ranks of county magistrate and saji.[1]
By 868, Kim held the rank of ichan. Dissatisfied with the succession of the kingship of Silla, he and Kim Hyŏn (김현;金鉉) plotted a rebellion against King Gyeongmun.[2][3] The rebellion was unsuccessful and both he and Hyŏn were killed.[1]
