‘Reply 1994’ Let’s Have It Chil Chun Po… What’s The Real Name?
As an episode was aired about the geographic name of Sam Chun Po in 'Reply 1994', there was more interest about the current administrative area of Sam Chun Po.
On tvN "Reply 1994" broadcast on November 16th, Go Ah Rah, Kim Sung Gyun and Son Ho Joon go to a demonstration to keep Sam Chun Po's name to go hang out in Sam Chun Po.
On this day, Sung Gyun said, "Soon, our Sam Chun Po and Sa Cheon City will be joined. But they're going crazy because of the name. There's going to be a fight about whether the name will be Sam Chun Po or Sa Chun. Soon, my hometown, Sam Chun Po, may disappear and I'm not feeling great about it" and showed his discouragement.
The residents of Sam Chun Po and Sa Cheon City who are in conflict because of the name decide to have a meeting with just a few people and Sung Gyun participated in this conference because of the sole reason that he attends college in Seoul.
Sung Gyun said, "The two names are both great so why don't we take the "Sa" or "four" from Sa Cheon City and the "Sam" or "three" from Sam Chun Po and name it Chil Chun Po ("Chil" meaning "Seven")?" His ridiculous suggestion drew laughter.
Meanwhile, Sam Chun Po city is no longer a geographic name. On March 1, 1995, with changes in the administrative regions, it was joined with Sa Cheon County and because Sa Cheon City. At the time of joining, the name was suggested to be Sam Chun Po City (then population 60,000) but with the strong opposition from Sa Cheon and the difference in the residents' voting, it because Sa Cheon City.
