Times Square, shopping mall in Seoul, South Korea
Times Square is a large shopping center in Yeongdeungpo District with about 200 stores, cafes, and restaurants spread across an open layout with bright glass walls and high ceilings. The central atrium provides abundant natural light, wide corridors make navigation easy, and a rooftop garden offers walking paths and seating areas for relaxation.
Times Square opened in 2009 as a project by Kyungbang Company on the site of a former factory and has since become a landmark in the area. Since its opening, the center has evolved by adding new brands and updating its offerings to combine shopping, entertainment, and cultural activities in one location.
Times Square is a gathering place where local residents come to shop and meet friends, reflecting the everyday rhythm of the neighborhood. The free weekend performances featuring music, dance, and theater acts create a shared space where visitors can experience the local culture and community life.
The center is located next to two subway stations, including Yeongdeungpo Station, and several bus stops, making it easy for visitors to arrive without worrying about parking. Large parking is available, but on weekends and holidays it can fill up quickly, so visiting on weekdays or in the morning offers a more relaxed experience.
The center houses Starrium, one of the world's largest movie screens for 35mm films, which attracts visitors with large-scale film screenings. This impressive screen is a rare technical feature that sets Times Square apart from other shopping centers and makes it a destination for movie enthusiasts.
