Hong Myeon-hui (1877-1946), also known as Hong Jin, was a leader of the Korean independence movement. He is also sometimes known by his pen name Manho (만호/晩湖, 晩悟). He was born under the Joseon Dynasty in Yeongdong, Chungcheong Province, to a yangban family of the Pungsan Hong lineage. He graduated from Keijo Imperial University School of Law, the predecessor of Seoul National University School of Law and had practiced law in Korea in the private practice and in the government sector as a prosecutor and a judge before joining the independence movement.

Hong held a number of chief positions under the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea during the Japanese Occupation. Under his administration as the 4th President, the provisional Korean government was recognized by the Republic of China, France and Poland. His main theme was unity among factions of the Korean independence movement.

His biography by Professor Han, Si Joon contains a detailed family tree of Hong Jin tracing back to Goryeo dynasty's Hong Ji-gyeong later known as a great master of Korean classical verse in the Joseon Dynasty. The current family jokbo contains surviving members of family who are naturalized American citizens.

*The spelling of his name in his correspondence with American dignitaries including condolence letter regarding President Franklin D. Roosevelt's death was Hong Chin instead of Hong Jin.
