This is a standing stone Buddha 1.7 metres tall, located east of Tapdong Village, northwest of the site of Haejeongsa Temple, in Gobu-myeon, Jeongeup, Jeollabuk-do Special Self-Governing Province. It is heavily weathered throughout, and the head, which had been severed, has been repaired with cement. The lowered right hand has broken off, while the left hand is raised near the chest. The octagonal pedestal is surrounded by an eight-petalled lotus carved in double layers. The Buddha image is currently housed inside a temporary shelter.
