The Gunsan Hwamul (Cargo) Line (Korean: 군산화물선) is an abandoned cargo railway line serving North Jeolla Province in South Korea. Before January 1, 2008, this line was called Gunsan Line which connected the major railway junction of Iksan (on the Honam Line) to the city of Gunsan.

As of January 2008, New connecting line between Janghang (Janghang Line) and Daeya opened. Iksan – Daeya was included into Janghang Line,new Gunsan station opened, old Gunsan Station was renamed Gunsan Freight Station, passenger transportation between Daeya Station and Gunsan Freight Station was stopped and the line was renamed to Gunsan Hwamul (Cargo) Line.
