King Euijong of Goryeo (1127 - 1173, r. 1146-1170) was the 18th monarch of the Goryeo dynasty of Korea. He honored his advisors with many ceremonies but hated the warriors. Therefore, three warriors (Jeong Jung-bu,Yi Ui-bang, Yi Go, and others, deposed King Euijong and appointed a new king in his place.
He was preceded by Injong and succeeded by Myeongjong.
