Sewoon Sangga
세운상가
byKim Swoo-geun[K.S.G.](kim sue-gun)· 김수근
Kim Swoo-geun's first work at urban scale: a kilometer-long megastructure of seven connected blocks running from Jongno through Cheonggyecheon to Toegyero. Once the heart of Seoul's electronics trade, partially demolished and now reborn as 'Multipurpose Cultural Sewoon' with a public rooftop walkway.
