The old and new buildings are harmonized each other well. And what's more, these structures are located on Sejongno, right in the heart of downtown Seoul.

Dongdaemun and its surroundings have a numerous subject for our Seoul urban sketchers. Those have a long history of Seoul and have undergone some major changes into Fashion Mecca in Seoul during the past several years. The more I sketch, the more interested I become.

Namsan is well-known as a celebrated mountain in downtown Seoul. The mountain and surrounding area is a public park maintained by the city government. It is a popular spot for a panoramic view of Seoul. Moreover there are a lot of interesting subjects for sketchers at the change of seasons. I sketched diverse sceneries walking along the Namsan Circular Road halfway up the mountain.
