Yono was a town (1889-1956) and then a city (-2001) of Saitama Prefecture, Japan and currently comprises the most of Chūō-ku, Saitama.
A Yono class submarine is thought to have fired the torpedo attack which sank a South Korean Pohang-class corvette, the ROKS Cheonan on March 26, 2010 in South Korean waters.
Also, this is the birthplace of Eiji Kawashima, Kawasaki Frontale's former goalkeeper that is now playing for Standard Liège.
