About this neighborhood

Punghyang-dong (豐鄕洞) originally was part of Guangzhou County (光州郡)'s Dubang-myeon (斗坊面). In the late Joseon period (1935.7.1), it became part of Gwangsan-gun's Seobang-myeon (瑞坊面). During the 1914 administrative consolidation, Punghyang-dong and the old village of Gosa (古沙, also known as Gosae, Gosaeki, Gosangki) were named Punghyang-ri (豐鄕里) based on the name of the old hyanggyo (traditional local school). In 1957, it became Hyojjuk-dong under the direct jurisdiction of the Gwangju City headquarters. Following the establishment of the district system on July 1, 1973, it came under the jurisdiction of Dong-gu. On March 1, 1997, due to the consolidation of small-sized dongs, Punghyang-dong was integrated. On October 1, 2011, due to the boundary changes between autonomous districts, part of Punghyang-dong was incorporated into Gyerim-dong, and part of Sansoo-dong became Punghyang-dong. Punghyang-dong is located southwest of a low ridge (Jaskeun High Pass) extending from Jangwon Peak of Mudeung Mountain to the northwest.
