There is a village called Gangjeong Village at the southernmost point of Seogwipo-si. It got its name because the village was always full of water (Gang and Jeong both mean “water” in Chinese characters: 江, 汀). Gangjeongcheon Stream, which is located at the east side of this village, is a beautiful site where natural bedrock water flows down from Hallasan Mountain all throughout the year and creates a wonderful harmony with nature. In summer, it is always full of visitors who come to escape the heat. It is a home to sweetfish, which are hard to find in Jejudo Island and you can also see mandarin ducks, which are designated as Natural Monument 327, flying in pack. Since 2002, “Gangjeongcheon Ollim Sweetfish Festival” is held every May in Gangjeongcheon Stream. Gangjeongcheon Stream is different from other regular streams of Jejudo Island in that it never dries up. It is also a lifeline that provides 70% of the drinking water to Seogwipo.
