The charm of Korean cities
If you are coming to South Korea, it is certainly not to discover the charm of the cities! At least you're warned because it may come as a surprise. In South Korea, the constraints of the terrain (always these same wooded hills) force the development of the cities in height, as they can no longer spread out. Thus, in the face of the strong demographic increase in a small country, Koreans are adapting by building huge numbered towers to accommodate families.
The buildings are tall and usually grouped into large groups of identical buildings. Here the vis à vis is necessary, the proximity with the neighborhood is immediate.

Big buildings grow everywhere.
The lack of space being a real problem in South Korea, the cities are slowly eating away at the nearby mountains. We were surprised to see whole sections of mountain razed and cleared to build new large projects in Yeosu, in the south of the country. Sometimes, it is also the shoreline that is trimmed to allow for the development of new constructions.

Buildings are built at the foot of the mountains.
As the country is mountainous, the entire population is concentrated in large conurbations. It is not uncommon to see large buildings even in the heart of the mountains, as soon as the terrain is favourable, even if there are many small villages whose population usually lives off the local agriculture.
