Gijang Dongwon Royal Country Club ☆ Follow

Gijang Dongwon Royal Country Club is a nine-hole public golf course located in Gijang-eup, Gijang-gun, Busan. Opened in October 2016, the facility spans 383,899 square meters and is set within a pine forest environment. The course layout consists of three par-3s, three par-4s, and three par-5s, totaling a par of 36. The design incorporates varied green configurations, with front and back greens that change depending on the tee box used, adding complexity to the putting surfaces.

The first hole presents a par-4 challenge where the tee shot must clear a hazard. From the white tees, the hole measures 305 meters, requiring a drive of approximately 150 meters to safely clear the initial obstacle. Strategy on this hole favors aiming for the center or slightly left of the fairway to avoid a slice, with the second shot benefiting from a downhill slope that shortens the distance to the green.

The second hole is a 317-meter par-4 from the white tees, featuring a fairway that slopes to the left. The green is visible from the tee, but the approach shot must account for the terrain, which restricts the left side of the fairway. Balls landing on the right side of the fairway tend to bounce and roll back toward the center due to the slope. The course offers four sets of tees—Blue, White, Gold, and Red—to accommodate different skill levels.
