==Overview== The name "Songpa-dong" is believed to have several origins. One theory suggests that during the early Joseon Dynasty, the area was originally called "Yeonpagwon," which later changed to "Sopagon," then to "Sopari," and eventually became "Songpajin." Another theory points to the area's location along the Han River, where a hill densely populated with pine trees existed. This hill, known as "Sonnamu Eondeok" (Pine Tree Hill), is thought to have given rise to the name "Songpa," derived from the term "song" for pine trees.
