Stephen (often rendered as Latin Stephanus) Kim Sou-hwan (May 8, 1922 – February 16, 2009) was a senior Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church and the former Archbishop of Seoul, South Korea. Having been an iconic figure in South Korea's bloody and tumultuous transition from military rule to democracy, he was widely respected across all sections in South Korean society. During Park Chung-hee and his successor's military dictatorship of the 70s and the 80s, the Korean Catholic Church under Kim's leadership was highlighted as a focal point of South Korea's democratisation movement.
