Jinyang Lake (Sacheon Lake / Jinyangho)

Jinyang Lake (Korean: 진양호), also referenced in some local materials as Sacheon Lake or Jinyangho Lake, is an artificial reservoir created in 1970 by damming the confluence of the Gyeongho and Deokcheon rivers to form the Nam River. The reservoir covers approximately 29.4 km² and spans parts of the municipalities of Jinju and Sacheon. Contemporary sources describe the lake as a regional recreational destination — fishing, park areas (often referenced as Sacheon Lake Park), and travel listings identify it among local points of interest. Although the user prompt referenced "Miryang’s drowned bride legend sites," the supplied research materials do not contain any primary or secondary descriptions of paranormal phenomena, apparitions, folkloric entities, or witness accounts associated with Jinyang Lake / Sacheon Lake. No theories or explanatory frameworks for supernatural activity are presented in the sources. Where folkloric significance (for example, a drowned bride legend) might be relevant, the provided excerpts do not document such traditions and thus such claims are left unreported here pending further corroborating sources. Current public-facing sources imply the lake is accessible for recreation; no documentation in the supplied material indicates closure, demolition, or access restriction.
