Kim Jong-huip (October 8, 1869 – July 9, 1944) was a governor of South Chungcheong Province during the Japanese occupation and served as a member of the Central Committee of the Japanese Government-General of Chosun.

Life
He is from Buyeo-gun, South Chungcheong Province. He studied Chinese characters when he was young, so he didn't have a regular academic background.

In 1892 and 1895, he passed the first and second poems and Saengwon poems, respectively, and established a private school in Hyang-ri to serve as a principal. Since 1912, he has held positions such as academic affairs committee members, financial union councilors, holding chairmen, myeon councilors, provincial councilors, vice chairmen of agricultural associations, and repair associations in Buyeo.

After 1920, Kim Jong-huip was also appointed to the Central Council in 1929, as the door of the Central Council was opened to local leaders. In 1935, it is on the list of commendators awarded by the Governor-General to mark the 25th anniversary of the municipal government. According to the records at this time, it was recorded that "when he passed the age of 40, he stood out in local education, unemployment, and economy." In particular, he was evaluated as a great contribution to internal convergence and local industry development by taking the lead in public projects.

It was selected in both the list of 708 pro-Japanese groups announced in 2002 and the list of prospective pro-Japanese dictionaries compiled by the Institute for National Affairs in 2008, and was also included in the list of 705 pro-Japanese activities announced by the Committee on Pro-General Activities in 2009.
