## History

The station, along with the rest of the Samjiyŏn Line, was opened by the Korean State Railway in 1948.[2] Extensive flooding in 1994 led to the closure of the line, and the station has since been out of use.[3] It is to be the terminus of the standard gauge replacement for the closed narrow gauge line.[4] [5]
