Gyeryong, a city in southeastern South Chungcheong Province, South Korea, with a total area of 60.7 km2 (23.4 sq mi), was created in 2003 after being split from Nonsan and had a population of 46,687 inhabitants, as of September 2024. In 1896, Gyeryong and its vicinity were called Yeonsan County, while, in 1991, the city was designated a special area by the president of the country. It is curious as well that the sister city of Gyeryong is Havana, Cuba.
