Jeongamru is a pavilion on Sotbawi Rock that was built by General Kwak Jae-woo to commemorate his victory in the Battle of Jeongam. The Battle of Jeongam was the first battle won by the volunteer army led by General Kwak Jae-woo. At that time, Ankokuji, a Japanese general, sent a scouting party and placed a wooden sign at the point where they would pass through. General Kwak Jae-woo, who noticed this, moved the wooden sign towards the swamp and used deception tactics to win the battle. Jeongamru was a ferry site where our ancestors used to travel by ferry, but now it is a pavilion that boasts a beautiful view overlooking the Namgang River. Jeongam (Sotbawi) is a rocky island in the Namgang River in Uiryeong. It has the shape of a pot above the water, and the figure hidden under the water also looks like it has three legs, hence its name. Underneath the iron bridge where the Namgang River flows leisurely, a rock resembling a cauldron appears leisurely on the water, and the story goes that there is endless wealth and honor in the radius centered around Jeongam.
