Shi Yukun was a highly popular Qing dynasty storyteller who performed in Beijing during the first half of the 19th century.
He is the credited author of the 1879 wuxia novel "The Tale of Loyal Heroes and Righteous Gallants"—better known today as "The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants" or "The Three Heroes and Five Gallants". The novel, based on Shi Yukun's oral performances, was later revised by philologist Yu Yue and republished in 1889 under the title The Seven Heroes and Five Gallants, with the story essentially unaltered.

Shi Yukun has also been represented as a character in two fictitious television costume comedy-dramas, both co-written by the Taiwanese author Kuo Cheng: The Strange Cases of Lord Shi and Thirteen Sons of Heaven Bridge.
