Namyangju

Namyangju (Korean남양주; Korean pronunciation: [na.mjaŋ.dʑu]) is a city in Gyeonggi Province, South Korea. To the east is Gapyeong County, to the west is Guri, and to the north is Pocheon. Namyangju was originally a southern part of Yangju-gun, but was separated into Namyangju-gun in April 1980. In 1995, Migeum-si and Namyangju-gun were merged to form an urban and rural complex. The city hall is located in Geumgok-dong and Dasan-dong, and the administrative districts are 6-eup, 3-myeon, and 7-dong.

Namyangju historical character: Chŏng Yagyong, also known by his art name Tasan [茶山] (1762–1836), was a leading Korean Confucian philosopher during the Joseon Dynasty. He is widely regarded as the greatest of the Silhak thinkers, who advocated that the formalist Neo-Confucian philosophy of Joseon return to practical concerns. Chŏng Yagyong and his brothers were also among the earliest Korean converts to Roman Catholicism. Chŏng was born, and also ended his days, in modern-day Namyangju, Gyeonggi province
