Han Hwak (Korean: 한확; Hanja: 韓確; 1400–1456), nicknamed Ganyijae (간이재), was a politician and a diplomat during the Joseon period of Korea. He is mostly remembered thanks to his second daughter, Queen Insu, who married the eldest son of Grand Prince Suyang (son of Sejong the Great). Some years later, Suyang became King Sejo, the seventh monarch of Joseon; Queen Insu's husband died before acceding to throne, but she was raised to the position of queen when her son became King Seongjong.
