This village was the site of Mahan during the Samhan
             Period, Pajisong during the Paekche Dynasty, and the main
             street of Nagan-gun  during Koryo Dynasty, and it has been
             designated as Historical Site No 302,the first entire village
              in Korea to be so designated.  It  is well  preserved
             ; the original Choson Dynasty stone walls are still in good
             condition, the Tonghon (office of magistrate), Kaeksa
             (guest houses), Monument of Admiral Kyong-up Im
             stands proudly for all to see, and the market place and
             traditional houses with straw-thatched roofs invite visitors
             to enter. During the Japanese invasion of 1397 (the sixth
             year  of the reign of King Taejong), General Pingil Kim
             called up civilian  troops to defend the village by stacking up
             mud walls. In 1626, 300 years after the construction of the
             mud walls, General Kyong-up Im,   who was then magistrate
             of Nagan-gun, replaced the mud walls with stone walls, and
             these are the walls that can be seen standing today.
