Jeomchon Station

Jeomchon Station is a railway station on the Gyeongbuk Line in South Korea. Jungbunaeryuk Line will be extended to this station in the future.

Origin of the station name
In around 1829, as many artisans who baked earthenware and tiles gathered together, Onggi-jeom and Giwa-jeom (places where they sold their wares) were established, and as the number of such places increased and the traffic of merchants grew, it came to be called "Jeomma." It originated from being called "Jeomchon" during the administrative district reorganization in 1906.
