Uijeongbu, Metropolitan district in Gyeonggi, South Korea
Surrounded by mountains in Gyeonggi Province, Uijeongbu extends across valleys and urban zones, forming a major residential center north of Seoul.
During the Joseon Dynasty, Uijeongbu functioned as an administrative hub, later transforming into a military center with the establishment of US bases after 1950.
The city produces budae-jjigae, a fusion dish combining Korean ingredients with American military base products like hot dogs and processed meats.
The U Line, an automated metro system spanning 11 kilometers, connects multiple districts while integrating with the Seoul Metropolitan Subway network.
Mountains Dobong, Surak, and Soyo encircle the city, creating natural barriers that influenced its historical role in military defense strategies.
