| The Hantangang River has been called '''Hanyeoul''', meaning ''large rapids'', and there is still a Hannyeoul village in [[Jeongok-eup]]. In old records, it was recorded as Daetan (大灘, large rapids), and it was later called Hantangang River. There is also a theory that during the Later Three Kingdoms period, [[Later Goguryeo]]'s [[Gungye]] saw the basalt around this river and lamented that the country would soon be destroyed, so it was called Hantangang River. | The Hantangang River has been called '''Hanyeoul''', meaning ''large rapids'', and there is still a Hannyeoul village in [[Jeongok-eup]].
