Yun Jin (Chinese: 云堇; pinyin: Yún Jǐn) is a fictional character in the action role-playing game Genshin Impact developed by miHoYo. The character was officially released in the 2.4 update titled Fleeting Colors in Flight, which was released on January 5, 2022. Yun Jin is portrayed as a successor of the traditional art form "Liyue opera" from the fictional nation of Liyue within the game, and she serves as the head of the local opera troupe, the Yun-Han Opera Troupe, as well as a leading actress. The character's English voice actor is Judy Alice Lee, the Chinese voice actor is He Wenxiao, the Japanese voice actor is Kotori Koiwai, and the Korean voice actor is Sa Moon-young. Yun Jin's dialogue and singing segments in Liyue opera are performed by Yang Yang.

Yun Jin's character prototype is based on a Peking opera performer, with the development team aiming to promote traditional Chinese opera through her character and to generate interest in opera among players. To achieve this, miHoYo decided to retain the voice acting and singing segments performed by Yang Yang in languages other than Chinese. In the game's 2.4 update, a video showcasing Yun Jin performing the Peking opera piece The Divine Damsel of Devastation attracted players from various regions to take interest in Chinese opera. It also inspired a group of first-class performers related to opera and musical instruments to undertake secondary creative works based on The Divine Damsel of Devastation. Mainland Chinese media positively reviewed the character, acknowledging her role in promoting traditional Chinese art. Chen Weijun, Vice Dean of the Institute of Cultural Industry Development at Jinan University, described Yun Jin as "a relatively good case of international cultural dissemination".
