Where it sits
Gwanjeong 3-ri belongs to Jeonui-myeon, in Sejong-si, at the point where the city's boundary meets Cheonan. It is rural, quiet, and small enough that most maps show it as little more than a cluster of roofs beside a road.
Location
Gwanjeong 3-ri, where Sejong meets Cheonan.
The place itself is part of the story: a village of about a hundred people on a road still named after water carried to a king.
Wangeuimul-ro — the King's Water Road
The road through the village is officially named after Jeonui Chosu, the spring once relayed to the palace for King Sejong's eye ailment. Most visitors driving through have no idea what the name refers to.
