About this neighborhood

Maegok-dong is named by combining the names Eomae (於梅) and Bonggok (鳳谷). The back mountain of the Eomae village is said to resemble a shape where plum blossoms fall to the ground, hence called 'Plum Blossom Falling Earth Peak' (梅花落地등). During the late Joseon period, this region belonged to Gwangju-gun's Waji-myeon (蝸只面) and later was incorporated into Seobang-myeon. In 1955, it was incorporated into Gwangju City, and with the implementation of the dong (洞) system in 1957, li (里) was changed to dong (洞). Combined with Maegok, Ochi, and Samgak-dong under the name Seosan-dong, believing it to be a blessed and auspicious mountain, it was later divided in 1994 into Seosan-dong and Ochi-dong, and in 1997, Seosan-dong was again divided into Samgok-dong and Maegok-dong.
