Namsanui bujangdeul (Korean: 남산의 부장들; lit. 'Chiefs of Namsan') is a 1992 non-fiction book by journalist and academic Kim Chung-sik. It focuses on the rule of South Korean president Park Chung Hee, especially the activities of the Korean Central Intelligence Agency (KCIA).
It was originally published serially in the newspaper The Dong-A Ilbo from 1990 to 1992. This work was then compiled into a book. The serial continued publication until 1994, although under a different author, Lee Do-seong. That was compiled into a third volume of the book in 1993.
In 2020, a dramatized film based on the book, The Man Standing Next, was released.
