Kim Jo-sun (Korean: 김조순; Hanja: 金祖淳; 1765–1832) was a Korean political figure during the late Joseon period. He came from the (new) Andong Kim clan (신 안동 김씨; 新 安東 金氏). He served as a minister in the royal court and orchestrated the Andong Kim clan's takeover of power. He was the father of Queen Sunwon. After his daughter became the Queen Consort, his son-in-law, Sunjo of Joseon, honored him as the Internal Prince Yeongan (영안 부원군; 永安 府院君).
