Girim (r. 298–310, died 310), whose name is sometimes given as Girip and also as Gigu, was the fifteenth ruler of Silla. The Samguk sagi records that he was either the grandson or great-grandson of King Jobun. Though he and his father Seok Gul-suk had descended from the Park clan paternally, they were both recorded as Seoks due to their maternal Seok lineage.[1]
