These underground resources are buried around north-east mountain belong to GANGWON-DO province. In 1957, the first rail road called HAMBAEK-SEON (咸白線) was built and YEONGAM-SEON (榮巖線) was followed to be opened in 1955. But, to utilize the biggest mining areas scattered around JEONGSEON, the first part of JEONGSEON-SEON (旌善線) was built 20 Jan 1967. And, we extended the rail road into the deeper mountain side. In 1974, the construction was finally completed as the final route of AURAJI – GUJEOLLI station was built. Considering the economy scale of South Korea at that time, it was big news. So, even Mr. PARK JEONG-HEE president participated in the opening ceremony. But, because current Korea became the expensive cost country, the mining cost is losing the feasibility. Therefore, the quantity of residence people and transportation demand drop until 2000.

  • Chungcheongnam-Do 충청남도
    © Lonely Planet 318 Chungcheongnam-do 충청남도 It’s close to Seoul and home to the fifth largest city in South Korea, Daejeon, but Chungnam – as it’s more commonly known – is not the most scintillating of provinces. Its attractions are largely very old (5th-century Baekje capitals) or utterly recreational (a bevy of beaches). Much of the buzz in recent years has focused on a new administrative national capital Sejong City, to be built near Gongju, but whether it materialises depends on the political winds in Seoul. For now, it’s Daejeon that’s the capital manqué, with flashy KTX services, all the trappings of modern Korean life and all its lack of urban charms as well. More interesting are the small towns left in its wake: little Geumsan is the hub of the ginseng industry, while Gongju and tiny Buyeo were once capitals of the ancient Baekje dynasty. The latter towns have retained a surprising number of old fortresses, tombs and relics, chief among them the tomb of King Muryeong in Gongju – like King Tut’s tomb, it was uncovered in modern times with all its burial artefacts miraculously intact. The province’s other main draw is its beaches. Daecheon Beach in the south is widely considered to be the best on the western coast, while travellers preferring some solitude can hop on a ferry to one of the nearby islands. To the north is Taean Haean National Park, dotted with more islands, beaches and the promise of wind-whipped fresh air – just what most day-trippers from Seoul are looking for.

  • Air Liquide Korea Carries out Facility Improvement at a Community Child Center in Cheonan
    PRESS RELEASE Seoul, 28 May 2015 Air Liquide Korea carries out facility improvement at a Community Child Center in Cheonan On May 27, Air Liquide Korea, the world leader in gases, technologies and services for Industry and Health, carried out a ‘Safe Day’ program at a community child center located in Dongnam-gu, Cheonan as a part of its ‘Act for Clean and Safe Community’ efforts. During the day-long Safe Day, employees from Air Liquide Korea’s Cheonan facility participated in renovating the center as well as sharing recreational time with the children, including making helium balloons. This year’s Safe Day focused on the safety of the children, including safety instructor and company volunteers teaching the youngsters about safety in everyday life. The volunteers focused on sharing safety rules at playgrounds and homes. Air Liquide Korea also inspected several other community child centers in Cheonan to assess their gas, electrical equipment, and fire safety equipment and selected the community child center for immediate improvements and repairs. This is the second Safe Day hosted by the company during 2015, following an earlier Safe Day held in Seoul. Christopher Clark, CEO of Air Liquide Korea, commented: “Following on from last year, Air Liquide Korea is proud to continue supporting community child centers by improving their facilities. It is a pleasure for us to join hands in improving the environment, welfare and safety of the children – as well as sharing safety knowledge -- at this community center.” The Safe Day program is a social contribution activity carried out since 2014 by Air Liquide Korea in collaboration with the Korea Association of the Community Child Centers.
