Cheongyang-gun served as the cradle of a number of notable figures and patriots including Joseon Prime Minister Beonam Chae Je-gong, who led a cultural renaissance under King Jeongjo, Myeonam Choi Ik-hyeon, who became a symbol of patriotism, Min Jong-sik, the leader of the Hongju Righteous Army, and General Song Yo-chan, a hero in the Korean War who later served as the Prime Minister.

Our county is a place of warmth and friendliness, where the residents live in harmony with nature. Cheongyang has many things to offer, from the impressive tourist attractions around Chilgapsan Mountain to the specialty products such as gugija (wolfberry), known to promote longevity, and the sweet and spicy cheongyang chili pepper.
