This article is about the South Korean-claimed province which it does not control. For the administrative division of North Korea, see South Hamgyong Province.
"South Hamgyeong Province" (Korean: 함경남도, Hamgyeongnam-do) (Korean pronunciation: [hamɡjʌŋ namdo]) is, according to South Korean law, a province of the Republic of Korea, as the South Korean government formally claims to be the legitimate government of the whole of Korea. The area constituting the province is under the de facto jurisdiction of North Korea and China.
As South Korea does not recognize changes in administrative divisions made by North Korea, official maps of the South Korean government shows South Hamgyeong Province in its pre-1945 borders. The area corresponds to North Korea's South Hamgyong Province, as well as parts of Ryanggang Province, Chagang Province, Kangwon Province and China's Jilin Province.
