Song Hŭigyŏng ({{Korean|hangul=송희경|hanja=宋希璟}}; 1376–1446) was a Korean scholar-official of the Joseon period in the 15th century.
He was also diplomat and ambassador, representing Joseon interests in the Hoeryesa (diplomatic mission) to the Ashikaga shogunate in Japan.Lewis, James Bryant. (2000).

1419–1420 mission to Japan
King Sejong dispatched a diplomatic mission to Japan in 1419–1420. This embassy to court of Ashikaga Yoshimasa in Kamakura was led by Song Hŭigyŏng . Its purpose was to respond to a message sent to the Joseon court by the Japanese shogun.Kang, Etsuko H. (1997).

The Japanese hosts may have construed this mission as tending to confirm a Japanocentric world order.Arano Yasunori (2005). [http://journals.cambridge.org/action/displayAbstract?fromPage=online&aid=316361 "The Formation of A Japanocentric World Order,"] The International Journal of Asian Studies, vol. 2 , pp. 185-216. Song Hŭigyŏng's actions were more narrowly focused in negotiating protocols for Joseon-Japan diplomatic relations.
