Template:Short description Template:Family name hatnote Template:Infobox royalty Template:Infobox Korean name/auto Kyŏn Sin-gŏm (Korean: Script error: No such module "Lang".; Hanja: Script error: No such module "Lang".Template:Category handler; ? – September 936,Template:Efn r. 15 November 935 – 936Template:Efn) was the second and final king of Later Baekje, one of the Later Three Kingdoms of Korea.[1] He came to the throne after conspiring with his two brothers, Yang-gŏm and Yong-gŏm, to overthrow their father Kyŏn Hwŏn and kill the anointed heir, their younger half-brother Kŭm-gang.[2][3]
The brothers placed Kyŏn Hwŏn in prison, but he was able to escape. Kyŏn Hwŏn led the Goryeo army against them in 936 AD at present-day Seonsan in Gumi, destroying Kyŏn Sin-gŏm's army.[4][5]
King Taejo of Goryeo deemed that the plot was the work of Kyŏn Sin-gŏm's brothers, and granted Kyŏn Sin-gŏm a noble title. Accounts vary as to whether Yang-gŏm and Yong-gŏm were sent into exile or slain.
