Kim Si-jung, born in 1883 in Gohan-ri, Jeongseon, Gangwon Province, joined Yi Gang-nyeon's righteous army unit in Mungyeong in 1907 as left vanguard commander. That October he led 120 men to raise military funds in Cheongpung, North Chungcheong, and in November joined forces with Sin Dol-seok's and Yi Gang-nyeon's units, totaling 500 men, to raid Sunheung in North Gyeongsang. After a defeat in February 1908 fighting alongside Yi Gang-nyeon and Kim Sang-tae, he served as center-army commander under Kim Sang-tae, and in 1909 he was killed in battle against Japanese forces at Dosagok, in present-day Sabuk, Gangwon Province, while leading about 50 men.
