August 2005: Dongdaemun Stadium from above, squeezed in between the shops and buildings.

Same neighborhood today: Dongdaemun Design Plaza at night.

From a sports stadium to a giant silver spaceship is such a Seoul glow-up. Every time DDP shows up in a music video I forget there was a whole stadium in that spot. ๋๋๋ฌธ (Dongdaemun, the Great East Gate) really doesn't do small renovations.
