Shim Soon-taek
Duke Shim Soon-Taek or Sim Sun-taek (1824–1906) was a high-ranking official of the Korean Empire who proposed an anti-Japan policy. He came from the Cheongsong Shim clan. Gojong of Korea awarded the Order of the Plum Blossom to Shim in 1902. In 1906, Shim got the title of Duke. Shim told Gojong that he does not need a title but, Gojong replied him that the reason why he ennobled Shim was because Shim has a lot of merits.
