'''Hwangbo Man-shik''' (7 June 1886{{Spaced en dash}}10 February 1989) is a [[Joyonghea]]<nowiki/>n soldier and intelligence officer. He is regarded for being a significant spy during the [[Great Eastern Rivalry]], which he recounts in his 1978 memoir  ''Tigerclaw: Recounts of Espionage''.

Hwangbo was born in Taeju in 1886 to a hunting and farmer family. He is regarded for his leadership skills when leading hunts with his friends. In 1904, he decided to enroll in the [[Soverign Army Academy, Boyeong]], and found intelligence appealing. He graduated 7th in his class in 1908. He participated in the [[Jeongsa War]] and served in Bactieu. Subsequently, he was transferred to Indiae to provide assistance to Aurucolian personnel in the Carnatic. During the [[Tibetian-Quenminese War]], he was transferred to serve with [[Jang Iseul]] and [[Mun Baek-hyeon]] to infiltrate Quenminese bases and sabotage equipment while disguised as monks and pilgrims to assist the Tibetian war effort. He later resigned from the Army in 1934 in support of Iseul's information. He made a living off hunting, and in 1935, his face was scarred from an encounter of a famous tiger named "Man of Wrath" in Joyonghea, which fostered his nickname '''Tigerclaw'''. He was offered to join the Army again in 1941, and served with the newly formed Special Operations Battalion of the [[52nd Infantry Regiment (JSA)|52nd Infantry Regiment]]. Alongside [[Jang Iseul]], he played a major role in Joyonghea's slow liberation during the [[Third Joyonghean-Quenminese War]], and the destabilization of Quenminese military presence in Tibetia. During the [[War of Lorican Aggression]], he replaced Iseul as Director of Army Intelligence from 1966 to the end of the war. He retired to continue pursuing his hunting career, and give advice to apprentice hunters. He died in his birthplace in 1989.
