Crown Prince Maui ({{Korean|마의태자|麻衣太子}}; born 912), born Kim Il ({{Korean|김일|金鎰|labels=no}}) was the last Silla crown prince as the son of its last ruler, King Gyeongsun.
The name Maui means "hemp dress", and comes from the fact that he spent his whole life wearing clothes made of hemp linen.{{Cite web|url=http://encykorea.aks.ac.kr/Contents/SearchNavi?keyword=%EB%A7%88%EC%9D%98%ED%83%9C%EC%9E%90&ridx=0&tot=9|script-title=ko:마의태자(麻衣太子)|website=Encyclopedia of Korean Culture|language=ko|access-date=2018-04-18}} His father surrendered Silla to Goryeo.
