Tae Wŏnŭi (Korean: 대원의; Hanja: 大元義; died 793; r. 793– ) was the 4th ruler of the kingdom of Balhae.
Tae Wŏnŭi was a son of King Mu, the second ruler of Balhae, and the brother of the previous king, King Mun; when Mun's son Tae Koengnim died, Wŏnŭi was chosen as the next king.[1][2]
However, upon ascending the throne the king showed a jealous and violent temper. In 793, he was slain by his ministers.[1] The son of Koengnim was chosen to replace him, becoming King Sŏng.[2]
