Haman County (Haman-gun) is a county in South Gyeongsang Province, South Korea. The local government is seated in Gaya-eup. The county magistrate is Seok Gyu Jin.
In the early Common Era, Haman was the seat of Ara Gaya, a leading state of the Gaya confederacy. Many relics from this period are still preserved in the county. After the fall of Gaya, Haman was absorbed into Silla as Asirang-gun; in 757 its name was changed to Haman-gun, which it bears today.
It borders Changwon-si to the east and south, Changyeong-gun to the north and Uiryeong-gun to the west. It comprises 3.9% of Gyeongsangnam-do. Haman-gun stretches 29 km from east to west and 26 km from north to south. It is located roughly in the center of Gyeongsnam-do. The county is fairly mountainous with Gaya-eup being in the river valley. The highest peak in Haman-gun is Yeohang-san (770m). There are many tributaries of the Nakdong and Namgang rivers in Haman. The Namgang River serves as the county line between Uiryeong and Haman and the Nakdong river as the county line between Haman and Changyeong.
