The Battle of Jangseong Hwangryong River (Korean: 장성 황룡촌 전투), or the Battle of Hwangryong River, was an 1893 conflict in Korea between the Donghak Peasant Army and Hong Gye-hun's army. During the journey from Yeonggwang, Hampyeong, and Muan to Jangseong, the Donghak Peasant Army, which had been advancing triumphantly everywhere they went, finally encountered Hong Gye-hoon's military forces that had chased after them and engaged in a battle in Jangseong.[1]
