Mungyeong (Korean: 문경; Korean pronunciation: [mun.ɡjʌŋ]) is a city in North Gyeongsang Province, South Korea. The local government, economy, and transportation networks are all centered in Jeomchon, the principal town. Mungyeong has a lengthy history, and is known today for its various historic and scenic tourist attractions. The city's name means roughly "hearing good news." Recently, development has been somewhat stagnant with the decline of the coal industry. Since the 1990s, the proportion of people who rely on the tourism industry through Mungyeong Saejae has gradually increased.

The city of Mungyeong was created after Jeomchon City and rural Mungyeong County were combined in 1995.[1] It is now an urban-rural complex similar to 53 other small and medium-sized cities with a population under 300,000 people in South Korea.[2][3]
