Sadeung-myeon

The landscape around Sadeung-myeon is an indented, hilly coast on Geoje Island, which has shaped both settlement patterns and an economy tied to fishing and small-scale farming. This township occupies the island’s northwestern side, where inlets and sheltered waters face the Korea Strait. Roads and homes follow the shore and narrow valleys rather than a broad urban plain, creating a quieter rhythm than in central Geoje. Fisheries, aquaculture and cultivated fields remain visible elements of local land use, while nearby Gohyeon is Geoje’s main built-up centre. Geoje’s Korean War history is commemorated at the Geoje POW Camp Historic Hall in Gohyeon, on the site of a major prisoner-of-war camp.
