Excerpt from Wikipedia
The Chungju Dam is a gravity dam on the Namhan River, 6 km (4 mi) northeast of Chungju in Chungcheongbuk-do Province, South Korea. The purpose of the dam is flood control, water supply and hydroelectric power generation. Construction on the dam began in 1978 and was complete in 1985. The 98 m (322 ft) tall dam withholds a reservoir of 2,750,000,000 m³ (2,229,461 acre⋅ft) and supplies water to a 400 MW power station.
