Soyang River (Korean: 소양강; RR: Soyang-gang) is a river in South Korea. It originates from Inje County, Gangwon Province and joins the Bukhan River in Chuncheon. Buk Stream and Bang Stream of Seoraksan and Naerin Stream of Gyebangsan join the river. 10km from the junction with Bukhan River, Soyang Dam was built in 1973.

During the Joseon Dynasty, Soyanggangchang was installed to store and transport crops (세곡) collected in the upper Bukhan River area to Seoul.

In 1951, Battle of the Soyang River (현리전투) took place between People's Volunteer Army and Korean People's Army vs Republic of Korea Armed Forces and United States Army.

Soyangjeong (소양정; 昭陽亭) is a pavilion built in the Three Kingdoms period of Korea. It was rebuilt in 1966 after it was lost in the Korean War. It is designated as Gangwon Province Cultural Heritage Material.

Soyanggang River Festival, started in 1966 with the name Gaenari Festival, is held every September to October for the succession of local culture and regional harmony.

"Maiden of Soyang River" is 1970 song by Kim Tae-hee. In 2005, a statue of a maiden was built to commemorate the song.
