Muju is known for its Muju Firefly Festival and is a popular tourism area. ==History== Muju-gun belonged to two different countries before being incorporated into one administrative district. Prior to the Era of Samhan (before BC 4th century), it was divided by the Sobaek Mountains, and its east side belonged to Byeonjin and its west side Mahan. During the era of the Three Kingdoms of Korea, Mupung (the present name) in Byeonjin belonged to Silla and was called ''Musanhyeon'', and Jugye area (current Muju-eup) in Mahan belonged to Baekje and was called ''Jeokcheonhyeon''. It is known that Musan was renamed as ''Mupung'' and Jeokcheon as ''Dancheon'' after the Era of Unified Silla (668~917). After Goryeo (918∼1392) was founded, Mupung did not change its name whereas Dancheon was renamed as ''Jugye'', and as Joseon rearranged administrative districts in 1414 (the 14th year of Taejong), Mupung and Jugye were incorporated into one district. It was named as Muju through the combination of the first letters of the two areas, Mupung and Jugye, after they were incorporated into one administrative district.〔Official webpage of Muju http://eng.muju.org/index.sko〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Muju County」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
