The Cretaceous strata are mainly exposed in the Gyeongsang basin, a southeastern part of Korea, and in several small basins along the boundaries of the Ogcheon belt and on the Gyeonggi massif.
Paleomagnetic pole positions from the Gyeongsang basin and from small basins in the Gyeonggi massif and the Ogcheon belt show a good agreement, indicating that the Korean Peninsula was a single terrane since Cretaceous.
Within the Gyeongsang basin, the paleomagnetic pole of the geographically northern area (Yeongyang block) is displaced westward from those of southern area (Milyang and Uiseong blocks).
