The station was opened in 1917 by the Chosen Government Railway, at the same time as the rest of the Ch'ŏngjin-Hoeryŏng section of the former Hamgyŏng Line; from 1934 to 1940 it was managed by the South Manchuria Railway. The station was destroyed during the Second World War; after the Korean War, it was refurbished with Soviet and Chinese assistance.
