Refers to a buncheong style produced from the late 15th to early 16th century at kilns in Hakbong-ri on Mt. Gyeryongsan in Chungcheongnam-do (province). While inlaid buncheong and inhwa buncheong were also made there, iron-painted wares predominated and today define the style. Vessels were coated with white slip and painted with motifs such as fish or floral designs using iron oxide pigment. The strong contrasts between the white slip and dark pigment and the bold expressive patterns are all characteristic features.

Refers to iron-painted buncheong sagi (buncheong ware) produced during the Joseon Dynasty at the kilns in Hakbong-ri on Mt. Gyeryongsan, Chungcheongnam-do Province. These kilns were active mainly between the 15th century and the first half of the 16th, producing stamped and inlaid buncheong sagi along with white porcelain. Iron-painted wares predominated from the late-15th century onward and came to characterize Gyeryongsan ceramics. These vessels were coated with white slip and decorated with iron pigment using motifs such as fish, flowers, and ruyi heads. Because this style was strongly associated with Hakbong-ri, iron-painted buncheong ware itself came to be called “Gyeryongsan buncheong” during the Japanese colonial era.
