Kogen-jinja Shrine was a shrine located in Chuncheon-gun, Gangwon-do, Korea

The enshrined deities were Amaterasu Omikami, Emperor Meiji, Kunitama Omikami, and Susanoo no Mikoto. Sosawo-son was added to Mt. Gozu in Chuncheon, including Gisangbong Peak, as it was one of the identified places of Soshimori of Silla.

It was associated with imperialism and State Shinto rather than local belief in Shintoism.
