This place is along the coast, not far from the kiln site in Yucheon-ri (Historic Site No. 69). Because the area was turned into the arable land or influenced by the coast, it severely collapsed considerably. In Jinseo-ri, including Yeondong, Sinjak-ri, and Gujak-ri, is 40-odd kiln sites. When the kiln was recovered, due to its location, placed which is in the southern slope of the hill, stretched toward the coast, its lower part of it was already destroyed by the seawater. The kiln was made by digging a long hole in the slope, with two smoke holes are on the upper side. In this chamber kiln, a lot of pieces of the primary broiled ceramic and some pieces of celadon, dating back to the 13th century were unearthed. Bowls, dishes, wine bottles, vases, and other vessels in plain celadon or with inlaid or underglaze designs of peony, chrysanthemum, lotus, crane, vine, and clouds have been found here. The celadon produced here was technically similar to that produced in Yucheon-ri but was somewhat less refined. Nevertheless, it had a high reputation.
