Kim Chong-jik (Korean: 김종직; Hanja: 金宗直; June 1431 – August 19, 1492), often known by his art name Chŏmp'ilchae (점필재), was a leading Korean Neo-Confucian scholar in the early Joseon dynasty. He was born in Miryang in Gyeongsang Province, to a yangban family of the Seonsan Kim clan. He passed the jinsa literary licentiate examination in 1453 and the higher examination in 1459.

After passing the examination, Kim entered government service, holding a wide range of positions. He earned the special favor of King Seongjong, as well as the enmity of the Hungu (Loyal Retainers) faction.

After his death, Kim Chong-jik's writings became the basis for the First literati purge of 1498 under the rule of Yeonsangun. His students included Kim Il-son [ko] who was killed in the first literati purge, and Kim Koeng-p'il [ko], who was killed in the subsequent Second literati purge of 1504 along with many others. Kim Chong-jik's memory was later rehabilitated, and he was enshrined in various seowon including Yerim Seowon in Miryang and Geumo Seowon in Gumi.
