Unseo-dong is neighbourhood of Jung District, Incheon, South Korea. The name Unseo was adopted in 1914 when the administrative district was consolidated.[1]

However, due to rapid development, various problems such as environmental problems, rich and poor problems, and increased demand for welfare are occurring together.[1]
