Photographed at Sejong-daero, Sogong-dong, Seoul in May 2024
Near Sejong-daero in Seoul's Sogong-dong district, a hanok gateway rises against the backdrop of modern office towers, its dark timber frame and curved tile roof a study in contrast with the glass and steel behind it. The May sun casts sharp shadows across the traditional lattice patterns, revealing the mathematical precision of Joseon-era joinery. Pedestrians pass on the wide sidewalk below without breaking stride, this juxtaposition of centuries so familiar to Seoulites that it barely registers. The Gyeongbokgung area preserves these architectural fragments as living punctuation marks in the modern cityscape.
