The Gunsan inner harbor area, where Jinpo Marine Park (Jinpo Marine Theme Park) stands, is the site of the Battle of Jinpo in the late Goryeo period. In the Great Victory at Jinpo, General Choe Mu-seon used cannons for the first time to defeat Japanese pirates. The park was built to commemorate this victory. The park was also meant to serve as a hands-on learning space for children and to build a sound sense of history and pride. source 1
