This
village is located 8km to the west of Kimjae City. Its boundary
is Baeksan-myeon to the east, Mangyeong-eup to the north, Juksan-myeon
to the south, and Gwanghwal-meyon to the west. It consists of mountains
which are less than 30m above sea level and plains, and it was named
"Seokdeok Mountain" because there were many gentle people
because of the good mountain and river. Seokdeok Mountain was a
very important place for the military; and it is the birth place
of Mr. Haehak Yigi, who was a big scholar at the end of the Choseon
Dynasty, so this place is the place of the royalty and has a long
history that maintains the atmosphere of our hometown.
