Juwangsan | Mountain Guide | K-Travel Mate

[Dongcheon, now only a legend in martial arts novels] Dongcheon (洞天) is a place that can only be entered without the skill of flying in the sky. At the entrance of the gorge, rapid currents pour out, and the sheer cliffs on both sides are immeasurably high. It is a scenery that seems to appear only in martial arts novels. However, such a mountain existed in this land. If foolish people in the 1970s had not dug a path through the cliffs before and after the First Waterfall, no one would have entered Juwangdongcheon until now. Although it was possible to cross the Jalrumok next to the Geumeun mine or Gamebong, no one had entered through the front east entrance until the severe drought dried up all the water in Juwang Valley. Therefore, all the legendary scenic spots are gathered below the east entrance. Since it was discovered after the legendary era ended, the waterfalls are simply named First, Second, and Third Waterfalls. Furthermore, despite ignoring Peak 907 at the end of the valley, Peak 721 is still given prominence as it was the highest peak accessible to those who could not enter Dongcheon. The legend involving the King of the Zhou Dynasty is similar. In Silla history, there was Kim Juwon, the first in line for the throne who failed to achieve his goal, and his son Heonchang's rebellion that ruined the country. However, strangely, the story is filled with the tale of the distant Later Zhou, a country that fell over a thousand years ago.
