Yonggary (Korean: 용가리; RR: Yonggari) is a fictional giant monster, or kaiju, that first appeared in the 1967 South Korean film Yongary, Monster from the Deep. The film and its title character were produced to rival the success of Toho's Godzilla films during the mid-60s. The kaiju itself later appeared in the 1999 film Yonggary.
