Yurye of Silla (284-298, died 298), also known as Yuri or by his official title Yurye Isageum, was the fourteenth ruler of the Korean state of Silla. He was a Seok and the son of King Jobun, but his mother was a Park and a descendant of Bak Hyeokgeose.
The Samguk Sagi relates that Yurye's mother conceived from starlight. It also records repeated invasions from Wa during his reign, and relatively cordial relations with Baekje.
