Jumunjin Beach

Jumunjin Beach, Public beach in Gangwon State, South Korea

Jumunjin Beach is a beach of white sand 700 m long and 90,000 m² in area, spanning the villages of Jumun-ri and Hyangho-ri in Gangneung, Gangwon State. It lies 1.5 km north of Jumunjin, the northernmost beach in Gangneung, and is also called Jumun Beach on the Jumun-ri side and Hyangho Beach on the Hyangho-ri side. Behind it are a 6,600 m² pine forest laid out as a park and Hyangho Lake.

The beach developed next to a traditional fishing port and has supported maritime activities since the early 20th century. The link to fishing remains central to local life today.

The beach spans Jumun-ri and Hyangho-ri, and the Hyangho-ri section is called Hyangho Beach. There an old bus stop stands where BTS shot the jacket photos for their 2017 album YOU NEVER WALK ALONE; fans still come to photograph it.

The beach is 1.5 km north of Jumunjin, at the northernmost point of Gangneung. The sand is 700 m long and covers 90,000 m², with a gentle slope and shallow water. Next to it is Hyangho Lake, where freshwater fishing is possible year-round, and a 6,600 m² pine forest behind the beach has been made into a park.

A bus stop on Hyangho Beach, the northern part of the beach, appeared on the cover of BTS's 2017 album You Never Walk Alone, and fans still come to photograph it.
