Introduction

Jeonpyeongje was a neglected reservoir for decades originally built to provide agricultural irrigation to farms in the Maewol-dong and Byeokjin-dong regions as well as to prevent both floods and droughts. Since 1999, the reservoir had been changed little by little into a rest area and in 2002 was developed into an ecological park.
