Samseong-dong

Samseong-dong contains numerous modern office towers, high-end retail establishments, and residential complexes spread across its urban landscape in southern Seoul.

The area transformed from rural Gyeonggi Province territory to an urban district through administrative changes, joining Seoul city limits in 1963.

COEX Mall, the largest underground shopping complex, features an aquarium, convention centers, and spaces where international exhibitions regularly take place.

Two subway lines serve the district through Samseong Station on Line 2 and Bongeunsa Station on Line 9, connecting residents to central Seoul.

The neighborhood name Samseong carries no relation to the Samsung corporation, despite their identical pronunciation in the Korean language.
