Jeong Inji (1396-1478) was a Korean Neo-Confucian scholar and government minister. During the reign of Sejong the Great, he was vice-minister of education.

He is perhaps best-known for having written the postscript of the "Hunmin Jeongeum Haerye", the commentary on and explanation of the Hangul invented by Sejong in 1443. He also contributed to the "Goryeo-sa", the official history of Korea, and the "Yongbi Eocheon-ga".
