Kim Ye-ji (Korean: 김예지; born 4 September 1992) is a South Korean pistol shooter. Born in Danyang, she started shooting in sixth grade after her gym teacher introduced her to the sport, and appeared at her first ISSF World Shooting Championships in 2010, where she won a bronze medal. Her performances at the 2024 ISSF World Cup and 2024 Summer Olympics, in which she set a world record in the 25 meter pistol women and won the silver medal in the women's 10 metre air pistol, prompted her to go viral online.
