Ahn Doo-hee (Korean안두희; 24 March 1917 – 23 October 1996), alternatively Ahn Doo-whi, was a Korean lieutenant who assassinated independence activist Korean leader Kim Ku on 26 June 1949.

Officially, it is maintained that Ahn Doo-hee acted alone, although some[who?] have theorized that Ahn was part of a broader conspiracy,[1] possibly the CIA.[2]

Ahn died at the hands of an admirer of Kim Ku in 1996.
