Kŭp is a North Korean military rank that is the equivalent of a corporal in most other countries. The rank of kŭp is divided into three grades, those being:
- Sanggŭp (senior corporal)
- Chunggŭp (corporal)
- Ch'ogŭp (lance corporal)
The rank of kŭp is junior to that of hasa, considered the first non-commissioned officer rank of North Korea. The South Korean equivalent to kŭp is known as byeong.
