Ri Kun-mo, also translated as Ri Gun-mo (5 April 1926[1] [2] – 2001)[3] [4] was a North Korean politician. He was Prime Minister from 29 December 1986 to 12 December 1988, when he was replaced, reportedly due to poor health.[5] He succeeded Kang Song-san. His successor was Yon Hyong-muk.

In 1998 he was nominated Chief Secretary for North Hamgyong Province,[6] but he was removed in 2001[7] and presumably died shortly thereafter.[8]
