Gongpyeong-dong is a dong, neighbourhood of Jongno-gu in Seoul, South Korea. It is a legal dong (beopjeong-dong ) governed under its administrative dong (haengjeong-dong ), Jongno 1, 2, 3, 4 ga-dong.[1][2]

The area is bordered by Gyeonji-dong to the north, Insa-dong to the east, and Seorin-dong and Gwancheol-dong to the south, and Cheongjin-dong to the west. Until the early period of the Joseon Dynasty (1392–1897), the place belonged to Gyeonji-bang (寬仁坊) - bang (坊) was an administrative unit during the time[3] - of the Jungbu district (中部), Hanseong (old name for the capital, Seoul).[1]
