Hangyeong (Korean: 한경) is a myeon in Jeju City, Jeju Province, South Korea.[1]
Hangyeong is located on the northwest of the Jeju Island. It contains the peaks Suwolbong and Dangsanbong. A Hangyeong-myeon was first established on July 8, 1956, when Hallim-myeon was split into Hallim-eup and Hangyeong-myeon. In 2007, Hallim became a part of Jeju City, upon the establishment of Jeju Province.[1]
It celebrated its 70th anniversary in 2026.[2]
