Within Yangpyeong-dong’s borders history whispers. This Seoul neighborhood wasn’t always a bustling dong. It has a long and fascinating past stretching back to the Joseon era.

After liberation in 1946 Yangpyeong-dong was born. Yanghwa-dong also changed its name. The term ‘jeong’ was replaced with ‘dong’. Yangpyeong-dong’s name itself is a testament to this evolution.
