history[]
It is an administrative dong in the northwest of Deokyang-gu, Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do. The name jugyo-ri (舟橋) appears for the first time in 『Goyang Gunji』 published during the Joseon Dynasty. It is said that there were Parkjaegungchon, Lee Inggok, Sageunjeol, and Seongrashinchon in the bishop's village, along with the record 'jugyo-ri' village in Wondang-myeon (元堂面) Lee Pa-ri'. In the 『Local Map of 1872』, it is marked as Jugyo-ri in the central part of Goyang-gun. Lee Par-ri was changed to Park Jae-gung, Bishop Sang-ri, Bishop Hari, Sageun-sari, and Sampa-ri due to the reorganization of administrative districts in 1906. In 1979, it became Jugyo-ri, Wondang-eup, and with the promotion to Goyang-si in 1992, it became an administrative dong that had jurisdiction over Jugyo-dong and Seongsa-dong. There are two theories about the origin of the name jugyo-dong. First of all, before the construction of the Han River embankment in the early 1930s, there was a river leading to the Han River in front of the village. Due to the great flood in 1925, a boat was washed down to this village. Another theory is that this is because the topography of the village is shaped like a ship. Therefore, the name of jugyo-dong can be considered as the Chinese character of Baedari. Currently, there is a natural village called Witbaedari, the bishop's Hangeul place name.
