“Kiung-kei, or the Capital Province ... is ... the basin of the largest river inside the peninsula. The tremendous force of its current, and the volume of its waters bring down immense masses of silt annually.... The tides rise to the height of twenty or thirty feet” (Griffis, Corea, 1905, bl. 187).—“Han-Kang. Fleuve qui arrose Sye-oul, Prov. de Kyeng-Keui” (Dict. Cor. Franç. bl. 4**).
