Heung Jin Moon (Korean: 문흥진; October 23, 1966 – January 2, 1984), also referred to by members of the Unification Church (UC) as Heung Jin Nim or posthumously as Lord Heung Jin Nim (흥진님 귀족),[1] was the second son of church founders Sun Myung Moon and Hak Ja Han. At the age of 17 he died in a vehicle accident in New York State.[2] Three months later his parents conducted a spiritual wedding ceremony between him and Julia Pak, daughter of church leader, Bo Hi Pak. He is officially regarded by the UC to be the "king of the spirits" in heaven (ranking higher than Jesus).[3] After Moon's death, some church members claimed that they were channelling messages from his spirit.[4] In 1988 a church member from Zimbabwe, named Kundioni, claimed to be the incarnation of Moon. His acts of violence against church members were a source of controversy within the church.[1] Moon is now believed by church members to be leading workshops in the spiritual world in which spirits of deceased persons are taught UC teachings.[5]
