Guryepo Beach became widely known as a filming location for the 1993 KBS 1TV historical drama 'Meondong.' After the broadcast, many visitors came for its sea, and it remains a popular beach. Calm water and white sand stretching out on both sides give visitors a scene like a landscape painting. Surrounded by mountains and dense trees, it is suitable for camping, and many guesthouses run by nearby farm households. Visitors can also swim here while moving between it and nearby Hakampo Beach.
