In 1957, Busan adopted a division system with the creation of six gu (districts): Busanjin District, Dong District, Dongnae District, Jung District, Seo District, and Yeongdo District. Today, Busan has divided into fifteen gu and one gun (county).
A gu (Korean: 구), or district, is an administrative unit in South Korea.There are two kinds of districts in South Korea.One is the autonomous district (자치구; jachigu) of special and metropolitan cities, which is a municipal entity similar to a city with its own mayor along with its own legislative council.
A gu (구; 區) is equivalent to district in the West. The metropolitan cities of Busan, Daegu, Incheon and Ulsan contain gun as well. Gu are similar to boroughs in some Western countries, and a gu office handles many of the functions that would be handled by the city in other jurisdictions. Gu are divided into neighborhoods (dong).

It has an area of 25.91 km 2. Nam District officially became a gu of Busan in 1975. In 1995 part of Nam District was divided to form Suyeong District.
