“At the edge of the city, highways and lush trees take over. Distant construction, lightpoles, and smaller buildings are concentrated below a calming sky of energetic strokes of paint. To the left, toward the Han River, a highway strut. On the right, one of two shiny buildings becomes like a blob.”
