Description

Gaeinyaksu Mineral Water comes up from the crack beside the valley after rainwater is absorbed into the slope of the mountain, passes through rocks, and melts minerals and iron. The spring water is rich in carbonic acid and iron, so it has a uniquely fishy yet refreshing flavor. In terms of water quality, this spring water has great value. According to a local legend, a hunter from Hamgyeongbuk-do named Ji Deok-sam discovered this spring in 1891 while hunting in the Baekdudaegan Mountain Range.
