Han Hwak (Korean:한확, 1400–1456), nicknamed Ganiejae(간이재), was a politician and a diplomat during the Joseon period of Korea. He served as Left State Councillor. His second daughter Jungsungunbuin, was the wife of Prince Geyang (a son of Sejong the Great by a concubine).
Han Hwak is mostly known by his sixth daughter, the Queen Insu. She married the son of Prince Suyang (son of King sejong). Some years later, Suyang became King Seonjong, the ninth King of the Joseon period, and his son became Crown Prince Uigyeong. The honorary title Queen Insu was granted when one of the children of Insu and Uigyeong became the King Seongjong of Joseon.
