Haman County (Haman-gun) is a county in South Gyeongsang Province, South Korea. The local government is seated in the town of Gaya-eup. The county magistrate is Seok Gyu Jin.

In the early Common Era, Haman was the seat of Ara Gaya, a leading state of the Gaya confederacy. Many relics from this period are still preserved in the county. After the fall of Gaya, Haman was absorbed into Silla as Asirang County; in 757, it was renamed to its present moniker Haman.

It borders Changwon to the east and south, Changyeong County to the north and Uiryeong County to the west. It comprises 3.9% of South Gyeongsang Province. Haman stretches 29 km from east to west and 26 km from north to south. It is located roughly in the center of the province. The county is fairly mountainous with Gaya-eup being in the river valley. The highest peak in Haman is Mount Yeohang (770m). There are many tributaries of the Nakdong and Nam rivers in Haman.[1] The Nam serves as the county line between Uiryeong and Haman and the Nakdong as the county line between Haman and Changyeong.
