Aengmu was the working name of a famed kisaeng of Daegu in the early 20th century.^[1] The name literally means "parrot." She was a leading donor to the National Debt Repayment Movement,^[2] a campaign that aimed to keep Korea out of Japanese control by reducing Korea's debt to Japan.^[2]

Donating 100 won to the cause in 1907, she explained that it was inappropriate for her to donate more than a man; but if a man donated more, she would also donate more, even unto death.^[1]

Her real name is not known; neither are her dates of birth and death.
