Namhae (?–24, r. 4–24 CE) was the second King of Silla, one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea. He is commonly called Namhae Chachaung, chachaung being an early Silla title.
Namhae is the only king who is called Chachaung. According to the Samguk sagi, Kim Dae-Mun explained that the title "Chachaung" meant a shaman in Old Korean.
