@Brian: I tend to be a little oblivious when it comes to things like red-light districts. I wasn’t familiar with the area at all before visiting, and after spending a day exploring, I know only that there’s much more to see than I gave it credit for originally. As a whole, Bundang continues to grow and grow – and overall the planning seems to be working reasonably well. There seems to be a greater demand than supply, a trend I don’t see slowing anytime soon. Of course, with the area being so residential there’s not much for a blogger to blog about- especially when he lives way on the other side of Seoul. I’ll have to go back to try to catch some of the other sights though.
]]>Are you familiar with the area? I heard a rumor a few years ago but I don’t know if it’s true: back before the Olympics Seoul decided to move a lot of prostitutes out of the city, so they put them in Moran, so that’s why that area is so . . . “active” now.
Ever make it out to Pangyo? When I lived in Bundang in 2005-06 they were just starting to build the Pangyo New City, but I haven’t been back since. I’m curious what it’s like now.
