Sejong, Administrative capital and smart city in central South Korea
Sejong spreads across 465 square kilometers in the heart of South Korea, connecting to major cities through modern transportation networks.
The South Korean government initiated the construction of Sejong in 2007 as a solution to reduce Seoul's population density and promote regional development.
Multiple national institutions, including a library, art center, and museum complex, form the educational and cultural foundation of Sejong's urban landscape.
The Seoul-Sejong Expressway, scheduled for completion in 2024, will reduce travel time between the two cities to 70 minutes.
Sejong incorporates autonomous public transportation systems and real-time environmental monitoring as part of its smart city infrastructure.
