Boramae Park

Boramae Park, Public park in Dongjak District, Seoul, South Korea

Boramae Park covers 407,560 square metres across Dongjak and Gwanak districts on the former site of the Korean Air Force Academy. It holds an artificial-turf football pitch completed in 2006, a jogging track, tennis and gateball courts, an artificial climbing wall, an X-game area for inline skating and BMX, two ponds covering 9,070 square metres, and an air park. The main stadium has an artificial-turf field.

The site once served as home to the Korean Air Force Academy before Seoul's government converted it into a public park. This transformation shifted the location from a military institution to a space for civilian recreation.

The park's name comes from the boramae, the hawk that served as the Korean Air Force Academy's symbol when its campus stood here. After the academy moved to Cheongju in 1985, the national finals of the Chief of Staff of the Air Force model aircraft competition, now called Space Challenge, were still held in the park for several years.

Boramae Park is served by Boramae Park Station on the Sillim Line and by Sinseol-dong-bound Line 7 at Boramae Station; Line 2's Sindang Station is also nearby. The main gate parking lot has 78 spaces and was raised to first-class rates after the Sillim Line opened in May 2022. From June 2026 to May 2027, part of the walking path is temporarily rerouted for the Dorimcheon deep rainwater tunnel works.

The park's name comes from the boramae, the hawk used as the symbol of the Korean Air Force Academy that once occupied the site. For several years after the park opened in 1986, the national finals of the Chief of Staff of the Air Force model aircraft competition were still held here.
