Urasoe Chōki

Urasoe Wōji Chōki (浦添 王子 朝憙), also known by his Chinese style name Shō Genro (尚 元魯), was a prince of the Ryukyu Kingdom.

Chōki was born to the royal family Urasoe Udun (浦添御殿). His father was Urasoe Chōei (浦添 朝英). Later, Chōki became the third head of Urasoe Udun.

Chōki served as sessei from 1835 to 1852. He was dispatched together with Zakimi Seifu in 1839 to celebrate Tokugawa Ieyoshi when he succeeded as shōgun of the Tokugawa shogunate. Chōki learned waka poetry from Kagawa Kageki (香川 景樹) during his journey. They sailed back the next year.

Chōki was good at waka and Classical Chinese poetry, and was designated a member of the Okinawan Thirty-Six Immortals of Poetry (沖縄三十六歌仙). Chōki had no heir, and adopted his nephew Urasoe Chōchū (浦添 朝忠) as his son.
