The Namyang Hong clan is divided into the Dang Hong (남양 홍씨 당홍계, 南陽 洪氏 唐洪系) and the To Hong (남양 홍씨 토홍계, 南陽 洪氏 土洪系) lineages. Although they share the surname Hong and an ancestral seat in Hwaseong's Namyang-eup, and so are grouped together as the Namyang Hong clan, the two lineages do not share a common first ancestor and are not related.
