    Teardrop Skyscrapers and a Metonymic Park in Seoul 2016

    Eight years and $31 billion from now, Seoul, Korea's Yongsan business district's cityscape will feature a whole new set of super-tall, futuristic buildings. The project is led by a seemingly odd alliance between Samsung Corporation and the National Pension Fund Service.

    The nearby metonymic Dongdaemun World Design Park will open in 2010. It's designed by Zaha Hadid. Images by the Seoul Metropolitan Government
