Jeungsan-dong (Korean: 증산동) is a dong (neighbourhood) of Eunpyeong District, Seoul, South Korea.[1][2]

Etymology

The name Jeungsan-dong is derived from an older name, "Sirumoe". It was named after the mountain behind the village (Banhongsan) which has a distinct overturned-like shape.[citation needed]
